Notes
If your cookies are too hard, it could be that they are overcooked or have too many cornflakes in them. It is a very fast-paced cooking process, so having all of your ingredients ready and the sheet pans set up before you get started will help. That way, you do not have to worry about overcooking anything while you’re measuring.
