WHY SHOULD I REFRIGERATE THE DOUGH BEFORE SHAPINGWhen you make the dough for these cookies, you will notice that it is very sticky, making it difficult to shape. If you are going to try and shape it immediately after mixing, you will be using extra flour to achieve this. Using extra flour will alter the recipe and texture of the cookies. It will be dense and not light. Therefore it is best to refrigerate the dough before baking. If you really want to speed up the process, then rather pop the dough into the freezer for 15 minutes. It will firm up quicker. Refrigerating the dough for about ½ an hour should firm up the dough. It really couldn't be easier, all three ingredients are mixed together in one bowl. The dough will be sticky and difficult to shape, so place it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up, making it easier to shape. If you really want to speed up the process, then rather pop the dough into the freezer for 15 minutes. It will firm up quicker. Scoop the dough with an ice cream scoop or spoon and place on the baking sheet. Press down lightly with a fork. Dip the fork in a bit of flour before pressing down. This will ensure that the fork does not stick to the dough. Bake in a preheated oven of 360°F /180°C for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, but leave the cookies on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a plate or cooling rack. The cookies continue to bake even after it has been removed from the oven. Gently remove with a spatula and allow to cool or if you are just as impatient as me then go ahead and devour immediately 🙂 Enjoy ♥ If you like this recipe, be sure to check out my other amazing cookie and slice recipes Still hungry for more?

What makes cookies soft & chewy?Well, the long and short answer to chewy cookies is it's all about the moisture content. Cookies that are dense and chewy incorporate more moisture into the batter. This can be achieved by making substitutions with ingredients, or even just changing the way you incorporate certain ingredients.
What makes a cookie soft and chewy or crispy?Butter contributes milk solids and water to a cookie, both of which soften it. Brown sugar contributes molasses – again, a softener. Using lower-moisture sugar (granulated) and fat (vegetable shortening), plus a longer, slower bake than normal, produces light, crunchy cookies.
