Baking Tips:

• Don't Overmix: Try not to overmix your batter or else you will end up with tough sad cookies.

• Don't over bake: You want the center of these cookies still gooey when you bite into them so try not to over bake them. If they look slightly gooey when you remove them from the oven, its ok! they will continue to cook while they cool.
