  Scoop out onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper, I use a medium size cookie scoop. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes or until cookies are very lightly brown around edges. The bottomes should be a golden brown color. Remove immediately to cooling racks.

  Store in a sealed container for up to 5 days. When placing in your storage container, place wax paper between layers or they will stick together because these cookie soften up to a cake like cookie after going in a container with lid on.

  NOTE: My old oven took longer to bake these, about 15 minutes. My new oven, on convection setting, only took 10 minutes.
