If you want the cookies to all be the same shape after baking, take to top of a mason jar lid, place it over the cookie and swirl it around in a circular motion for a few minutes. This will result in the perfect circular cookies.
IF YOU WANT THIN CHEWY COOKIES USE 1 1/2 cups flour.
If using gluten free 1:1 flour use 1 1/2 cups.
