- All refrigerated ingredients should be room temperature unless stated otherwise.

- You can heat treat your flour as far in advance as you’d like, but make sure that it’s cooled off when adding it to the cookie dough.

- Be patient when pulsing the butter into the crust ingredients - it will take a few minutes.
