Yes, I realize this is the very hard part. 5. When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350ºF. Line baking sheets with silicon mats or parchment paper. 6. Gently form dough into 1 1/2 to 2-inch balls and place 2 to 3 inches apart on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes on middle rack. 7. Remove from oven and let cool on pan for 2 more minutes. Transfer cookies to a rack to cool completely if you have any will power left.
