Baking Tips for Success

To achieve the perfect soft and chewy texture, it's important to not overmix your dough. After combining the wet and dry ingredients, mix just until incorporated. Overmixing can lead to tough cookies, so be gentle during this stage. Remember, the dough should be slightly sticky but manageable for scooping.

For an extra touch, consider chilling the dough for about 30 minutes before baking. This allows the flavors to meld and can enhance the overall texture of your cookies. Chilled dough also helps prevent excessive spreading, resulting in thicker, more satisfying cookies.

Storing and Enjoying Your Cookies

Once baked, these cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. If you want to keep them fresh for a longer time, consider freezing them. Simply place the cooled cookies in a freezer-safe container, separating layers with parchment paper to prevent sticking. They can be enjoyed straight from the freezer or thawed at room temperature before serving.

These cookies are perfect for pairing with your favorite non-dairy milk or coffee. Enjoy them warm from the oven for a gooey treat or let them cool for a delightful snack anytime. No matter how you choose to enjoy them, these Dairy-Free Cookies and Cream Cookies are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth!
