  3. Gradually add all-purpose flour, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  6. Use a dough scoop to form balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
  7. Bake for 11-15 minutes until puffy with lightly browned edges. Centers may look slightly underbaked.
  8. Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 3-5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
