Frequently Asked Questions
How can I ensure my cookies stay soft after baking?
To keep your cookies soft, avoid overbaking them. Remove them from the oven when they're lightly golden on the edges but still soft in the center. Additionally, storing them with a slice of bread in the container can help maintain moisture and softness, preventing them from becoming hard.
