Notes
- If possible, use vegan butter sticks instead of from a tub as the sticks have less water in them. I use Earth Balance.
- You can add in other mix-ins if you'd like. Pecans or walnuts would be delicious too.
- Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-5 days.
