They were a very pleasant snack to have around, and really enjoyed by everyone. I'd be happy to make them again. Thank you so much for your kind assistance!

I'd actually split the difference and use 4.75 ounces, because while you want a tender dough, it also tends to be slightly tacky as you roll it out. If it gives you problems when trying to shimmy the cut dough onto a spatula, simply dust both with a little more flour. No trouble at all, Shell.

But in the meantime, for this specific recipe, can you suggest how much flour should be used? The smaller amount (4.5 oz. per cup), or the larger one (5 oz.)? I'm sorry for troubling you, but I just can't figure it out... Thank you! Dear Renee,

(You've probably noticed that some recipes include weight measures and others do not.) If a cookbook includes a weight measure, we share it with you for the very reason you suggest. Please hang in there, we're seeing more and more authors share the weight measure...

The flour amount could range between 350-385 grams, and I would greatly appreciate knowing the correct amount for this recipe. Thank you for sharing this recipe! I'm looking forward to making it.

Oh, and a tip: roll out the cookie dough between the sheet of parchment, slide the whole thing onto a cookie sheet, and refrigerate for about 20 to 30 minutes. They'll cut cleanly.

My children were especially thankful for that part of the recipe :) And, while I think cultivating patience is an underappreciated art, hallelujah for being able to bake these right after finishing folding in the flour!

I've been eating vegan for the last two weeks for fun (sounds ridiculous for a butterfat lover like myself, but I wanted to immerse myself exclusively in vegetables for a while), and these have reminded me that butter is *magical*. I used Plugra and will tell everyone to follow suit. Dangerous, delicious bites. Yes, please!!! The first tray wasn’t incredibly easy to cut and place, but the flavor, OH, THE FLAVOR!
