Notes
Variation ideas: Stir in 1/2 cup toasted pecans or shredded coconut, or drizzle set cookies with melted dark chocolate. For a salty-sweet finish, sprinkle flaky salt on top right after scooping.
Storage: Keep cookies in an airtight container at room temperature up to 5 days, or freeze up to 2 months.
