  8. Scoop and bake: Drop heaping tablespoons of dough onto the baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  9. Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden and centers are set.
  10. Cool down: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
