Sweetness Level: If you prefer sweeter cookies, you can increase the amount of sugar in the dough to 2 tablespoons. You can also drizzle the baked cookies with a simple icing made of powdered sugar and milk for extra sweetness.
Flour Variations: You can substitute some of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a heartier texture. Just keep in mind that whole wheat flour may make the cookies denser.
Avoid Overmixing: Be gentle when combining the wet and dry ingredients to avoid overworking the dough, which can result in tougher cookies.
Storage:
Room Temperature: Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Make sure they are completely cool before storing them to prevent condensation from making them soggy.
Refrigeration: While these cookies are best enjoyed fresh, you can refrigerate them for up to a week in an airtight container. Let the cookies come to room temperature before serving, or lightly warm them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds.
Freezing: To freeze the cookies, place them in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until solid. Transfer the frozen cookies to a freezer-safe bag or container and store for up to 2 months. Thaw them at room temperature before serving.
