  • Add contents of jar to bowl, and stir to combine. Chill dough for 30 minutes.
  • Form dough into roughly 20 golf-ball sized portions, and place onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes. Edges will be set, but the middle of cookies will appear slightly undone.
