- Shape the Cookies: Scoop about 4 tablespoons of dough for each cookie and roll into balls. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 4 inches apart.
- Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly underbaked. Do not overbake for a soft and chewy texture.
- Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Tips:
- For extra gooey cookies, press a few additional chocolate chips or macadamia nuts on top of the dough balls before baking.
- Chill the dough for 30 minutes if the dough is too soft to handle.
