When you are ready to bake the cookies, take the dough out of the refrigerator.  Pre-heat 350ᴼF.  Let the dough sit out on the counter for about 15 minutes while the oven is pre-heating.  Roll the dough into balls and place them on an oil-sprayed cookie sheet.  Next, place the cookies in the oven for 10-11 minutes depending on your oven.

Once they are finished, take the cookies out of the oven.  Place the baked cooked on a cooling rack and grab yourself a glass of milk and enjoy!
