Notes

You can even cover the dough with plastic wrap and keep it in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours or up to 3 days. Chilling will help prevent the cookies from spreading less.
You can add a splash of lemon juice or zest for a tropical twist.
Feel free to add chopped nuts or shredded coconut for additional flavor.
