  Transfer balls to prepared sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart. Bake cookies until edges are set but centers are still soft and puffy, 18 to 20 minutes, swiching and rotating baking sheets halfway through baking. Let cookies cool on sheets for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire rack and let cool completely before serving. Repeat with remaining dough using cooled, freshly lined baking sheets.
