Note
For best results, ensure butter is softened to room temperature but not melted.
You can prepare the dough ahead of time. Scoop dough onto baking sheets, freeze until solid, then transfer to an airtight container. Bake from frozen, adding 1-2 minutes to the baking time.
Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
For a salted caramel variation, sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on top of the cookies immediately after removing them from the oven.
