• Don’t overcook otherwise cookies will not be chewy and will get crisp like biscuits.
• For lesser number of cookies, you can reduce the quantities of ingredients but keep them in same ratio.
• Also,in Whirlpool convection ovens,there is a crisp option. At the end of 9 mins, you can put on crisp for 1-2 mins to get the bottom crispier!
