Notes

Don’t skip baking the flour: It’s essential for safety. Spread the flour on a baking sheet and bake it for 5 minutes at 350°F.
Use room temperature butter: This makes it easier to cream with the sugar, giving you a smooth dough.
Mix thoroughly: Be sure the wet ingredients are well combined before adding the dry ingredients.
Add dry ingredients gradually: This helps prevent lumps and ensures a smooth texture.
Store properly: Keep the cookie dough in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
Serve at room temperature: This brings out the best texture and flavor.
