Scoop the dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet in mounds about 3 tablespoons each, about 1 inch apart from one another. They will not spread much, if at all, during baking. Press the dough into round disks about -inch thick. 5. Place the baking sheet in the center of the oven and bake until the cookies are puffed and slightly cracked on top (about 12 minutes). Remove the cookies from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet until firm. Enjoy!
