Notes

  • Make all your cookies the same size: Make all your scoops even so that each cookie matches with one the same size. A cookie scoop makes this easy.
  • Keep an eye on the bake time: Start checking the cookies at 12 minutes. They'll keep firming up as they cool.
  • Cool completely: Wait until the cookies are completely cool before you add the frosting. Warm cookies will melt it.
  • Be generous with the frosting: A thick layer gives the candy something to stick to.
