## Tips

- To prevent cookies from being dry or crumbly due to too much flour, use the spoon-and-level method: fluff flour, lightly spoon into measuring cup, then sweep excess with a knife.
- If the dough turns out crumbly, add about 1-2 tbsp of melted butter or water.
- Adding pumpkin pie spice can be a delicious variation.
