These are my favorite cookies and I have been baking them for years especially at holiday time! I usually mix in 1/2 cup chopped nuts before chilling. And my recipe says bake for 15 min. but I do know that sometimes that is too long, so I just check them and use my judgement.

    I didn't have enough baking powder so I substituted a little baking soda, but it still turned out great! Had to bake it a little longer than 10 minutes but it still came out nice and soft and chewy!

    I baked at 350 F. for 11 mins. and got soft chewy cookies. Keep the dough in the fridge between rolling to keep it from getting mushy. It was easier to scoop abt. a tsp. full of dough onto the powdered sugar and roll it into a ball once it was coated in the powdered sugar. Delicious.
