• In a separate bowl; combine the Dry ingredients.
• Add half to the Dry ingredients to the Wet ingredients, mix until combined.
• Add the rest of the Dry ingredients and mix until all ingredients are incorporated.
• Scoop Cookie dough onto prepared baking sheet, ice cream Scoop works great.
• Flatten the dough lightly. I used a potato masher, dip in flour to prevent dough sticking to it while flattening.
• Bake for 12 min at 350°F, lightly golden edges.
• Cool on Baking Sheet for 5 minutes after, then transfer to cooling rack to cool completely.
