- Use a cookie scooper to scoop round mounds of dough and place them on the baking sheet about 1 inch apart. Use a fork to press them flat.

- Once cooled, melt chocolate and dip each cookie until half covered.
- Place the chocolate-dipped cookies in the fridge to chill until chocolate sets. Serve.
Notes
- You may cool the cookie dough in the fridge for 30 minutes before baking to prevent it from spreading.
