• Using a teaspoon size cookie dough scoop, scoop up the cookie batter, and make 1-inch balls; then place them on baking sheet that's been lined with parchment paper.
• Bake in oven for 8 to 9 minutes. (Don't over-bake the cookies.) Make sure the bottom of the cookie is lightly browned.
• Let cookies sit for one minute on cookie sheet. Then lightly press a chocolate star in the center of each cookie.
• Transfer cookies to a wire rack to allow the cookies to cool. Once all the cookies have cooled, I then place them back on a cookie sheet (without the parchment paper), and place the cookie sheet in my freezer, so the chocolate star firms up. Later I store the cookies in a Tupperware Container in the freezer. These cookies keep well for some time in the freezer.
