Helpful Tips For Making Cookies

Make sure you chill the dough. This step allows you to shape the cookie dough into a bowl. But also it helps make the cookies not flatten too much in the oven.
Watch the cookies, and use the cook time as a guide. Some ovens will cook the cookies faster. If you overbake the cookies will dry out and be crunchy.
You are welcome to use store bought cookie dough if you want to skip some prep work.
Sprinkle the cookies with some sea salt flakes to help bring out more sweetness from the chocolate.
