Variations & Tips
For a twist on these classic cookies, you can add a pinch of nutmeg or cinnamon to the cookie dough for a spiced version. Another lovely variation is to stir in some chopped pecans or walnuts into the batter for added texture and nuttiness. If you’re feeling particularly decadent, drizzle or dip the cookies in melted chocolate once they’ve cooled.
