These cookies were delicious. My 4 year old helped make them and we made half a batch. I used a regular ice cream scoop filled half way with dough. Recipe made 13 4” cookies. My family loves them! Yummy!!

As they say, the third time is a charm.
This time, after looking through the 579 comments over on the PW site, I adjusted the recipe as follows to great success:
– Flipped measurements on the salt and baking soda
– Added 3 more tablespoons of butter
– Added a full cup of chopped walnuts
and I used a #70 scoop which yielded just over 6 dozen.
The result was a crisp chewy cookie that flattened out and looked like the pictures and created a path in the rug as feet padded back and forth to the kitchen for “just one more” Recognizing the path that I was going down, I white knuckled it and packed them up and brought to work where I have now been requested to make more. Sigh

These cookies had a lovely buttery caramel flavor and a wonderful chewy texture. My batch made 48 cookies. My oven tends to bake a little fast, so I only left them in for 10 to 11 minutes in order to keep them chewy. The first sheet that was in for 12 minutes got crispy.

Flavor-wise these cookie were 10 stars, but I’d give them a 3 in appearance because mine turned out very thin and flat like lace cookies. Also, not sure if Ree meant to specify a “teaspoon scoop” because that’s a very small amount of dough to be in a 350F oven for 12-13 minutes. I switched to a tablespoon scoop and that worked out much better, but even at the larger size, they still needed to be pulled out of the oven after only 10 minutes. I bake with an oven thermometer so I don’t believe my oven was a factor. Note: these cookies spread a lot – I was only able to bake 8 at a time. Definitely delish though.
