FAQs
Can I use store-bought cookie dough?
Yes, you can use pre-made chocolate chip cookie dough to save time. However, homemade dough offers better control over flavor and texture.
Do I need to chill the dough before baking?
Chilling the dough for 30 minutes can help prevent the cookies from spreading too much during baking, resulting in a thicker cookie.
