Notes
*Butter should be just melted but not hot. It takes me about 40 seconds in the microwave.
**If you wait until the tops are light golden brown to take the cookies out, you'll end up with a crunchier cookie.
***I sprinkled a little kosher salt on the cookies for pictures (and for me). Feel free to try it or not.
