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 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.

Great cookies. I added a tsp mint extract to make chocolate mint.
