4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line two large baking sheets with parchment. Place the dough balls on the sheets, about 1-inch apart, and bake {one sheet at a time} for 10-11 minutes, or until the cookies have spread a bit and begin to crack on top. they’ll be very soft and puffy. Let them cool on the pan for at least 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
