   Schritt 5. Scoop the cookies

   Scoop 2–3 tablespoons of batter per cookie onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving 4–5 inches between each cookie.

   Four cookies per sheet prevent spreading into each other; you can fit six if you don't mind some overlap.

   Schritt 6. Bake the cookies

   9 Min.

   Place the baking sheet on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the tops begin to crack.

   8 minutes gives very fudgy centers; closer to 10 minutes is less fudgy. Bake in 1-minute increments if needed. Do not exceed 10 minutes.
