Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, place about 1½  tbsp of dough on a cookie tray, about 3½  inches apart; these cookies will spread quite a bit to about 3 inches in diameter.

With the bottom of a glass or measuring cup, flatten the cookie dough to about ¼ inch. NOTE: The thicker the cookie, the chewier it will be.

Bake at 350 degrees for 11-12 minutes or until the edges just turn golden brown.
