  6. The longer the dough rests the better the flavor and lesser spread. You can also scoop them out immediately and freeze them. I kept mine refrigerated for a day and scooped them onto the trays and flash freeze them in the freezer till stiff before baking them.

  7. Bake at 180c or 350f for 12-15mins or till edges gets slightly browned. Mine took 15 mins. I had to bake them in three four batches as my oven can only fit a small tray at a time.

Notes

Don’t use chips preferably, instead, opt for a mix of milk or semisweet and dark chocolate chunks. Let the dough rest overnight or longer for a more deeper flavor. Lastly, use an ice cream scooper to get even-sized cookies every time.
