Drop cold dough onto prepared baking sheet spaced 2 inches apart. Bake in the center of the oven until set and lightly golden, 10-12 minutes. Remove from the oven, allow to cool about 2 minutes then carefully transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool. Cookies will be very soft when warm. Yield: about 1 dozen.
