Updated on Apr 17, 2011

Like in my other cookie recipes, I use a baking stone and they turn out amazing as well, although, I suggest leaving them on the stone a bit longer than a pan to cool. ***An easy way to keep cookies soft a few days longer, put a piece of bread in the container with them.***
