Bake Cookies
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may look slightly underbaked; they will continue to cook on the baking sheet.

Cool Cookies
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
