Notes
Chill the dough: Chilling helps the dough hold its shape while baking and prevents spreading.
Don’t overbake: Keep an eye on the cookies so they stay soft and chewy.
Roll evenly: Roll the dough into uniform-sized balls for consistent baking.
Add sprinkles last: Press the sprinkles in just before chilling to keep them from sinking into the dough.
