Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Position oven rack in the center.

Notes

For best results, chill dough 5-10 minutes before baking to prevent cookies from spreading. Use piping bags or zip-top bags for frosting details. Spice up the dough with cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice for fall flavor. Cookie sandwiches with frosting are a delicious variation.
