Use a small ice cream scoop or spoon to drop ping pong ball-size dollops of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets. They don't spread much, so they only need 1/2 inch of space between the cookies. Bake for 10 minutes, or until lightly browned on the bottom. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before devouring. You can freeze baked cookies in a gallon-size freezer bag for up to 3 months.
