3 00:01:19 - Place shaped cookies into the fridge for 30 minutes while the oven preheats to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.

4 00:01:49 - Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet.

*One alternative is to roll your cookies in powdered sugar while still warm. The powdered sugar will melt slightly and create a different effect on the cookie. Try both and see which you like best! Either way is delicious.
