Scoop the dough into 2 tablespoon portions (a mini ice cream scoop works best for this). Roll into small balls, and place on a baking tray, leaving some space between them. Work in batches, if needed.Bake for 8-12 minutes, or until golden brown and the edges are crispy. Allow them to cool slightly, then transfer them to a cookie rack to cool completely.Cookies are best on the day of baking, but your can store any leftovers in an airtight container for a couple of days.
