If you are like me and don’t want to waste a few hours baking cookies, you can place all of the dough on a cookie sheet (lined with wax paper) and cook it like a pan of brownies. Spread the dough evenly on the cookie sheet and place it in the oven. Bake at 350F for 20 min or until done.
Remove the cookie sheet from the oven when slightly golden brown. Let them cool on the sheet until they are easy to cut and remove from the sheet without making a mess.
