- Egg: 1
Instructions
- Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Notes
Place the cookies 2 inches apart on the baking sheets so they have enough space between each other and don't overlap as they bake.
If you prefer your cookies to be less thin, use less sugar (½ cup of sugar instead of ¾ cup).
Consider using a cookie scoop to ensure each cookie is the same size.
