Baking Notes
  1. The line between "baked just right" and "burned/crunchy bottom" is very fine. You will need to get a feel for your oven to dial it in.
  2. If you are consistently seeing the bottoms burned with the middle not baked enough, try moving the baking rack higher up in the oven. In most ovens, the bottom is hotter than the top.

Reheating

These cookies will harden once cooled. Some people like that. If you prefer them chewier, there are two ways to quickly re-heat them:

  1. (Toaster) Oven - recommended: Place the cookies on a baking sheet in the oven at 350 degrees for 2-3 minutes.
  2. Microwave: Place the cookies on a plate and nuke in microwave for ~10 seconds.

I've been told these cookies keep extremely well. One family member said they had them in a snack bag in the car for weeks and they were still delicious by the end. I don't know first-hand because their survival in my house is counted in hours, not weeks.
