Notes

For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract to the mixture. Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week. These cookies are freezer-friendly; freeze them in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature or warm gently before serving.
