Steps
Sequence Step
1Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2Sift flour through salt together into a mixing bowl.
3Add remaining ingredients and stir until combined.
4Spritz cookie sheets with cooking spray.
5A heaping teaspoonful at a time, scoop out dough and roll into a ball. Place balls approximately 1 1/2 inches apart on sheets (I was able to get 15 cookies on a large sheet), then use a fork to flatten the balls slightly.
6Bake for 15 minutes, or until a finger test does not leave an impression. Remove to cooling racks. Eat! Store remaining cookies in an airtight container.
