Notes

*Measure your flour properly. This is my #1 baking tip! Do not ever scoop a measuring cup into your flour as this always leads to using too much flour. Instead, use the spoon-level method. This means fluffing the flour first, then spooning it into your measuring cup/spoon. For the BEST results, use a kitchen scale!*

*The key to achieving a chewy cookie texture is cooled butter. I recommend letting it cool at room temperature first for about 20 minutes, then stick the bowl in the fridge for another 5-10 minutes. It should feel cool to the touch, about 70F but NOT solid.
