Rehandling dough toughens cookies, so
press dough back together, do not knead.
Always place cookie dough on a cool cookie sheet. A hot cookie sheet will make
the cookies spread too much.
After baking, remove to racks to stop the baking.
Grease cookie sheets only if the recipe tells you to. Rich cookies will spread
too much if baked on greased sheets.
Cool bar cookies completely in pan before cutting.
