Notes
Ensure your butter is truly softened, not melted, for the best dough consistency.
Do not overmix the dough after adding flour to keep the cookies tender.
Use a small cookie scoop to ensure uniform cookie size and even baking.
Dust with powdered sugar while cookies are still slightly warm for better adherence.
