Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Drop dough by well-rounded tablespoons onto ungreased cookie sheets, allowing space for cookies to spread. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until light brown around the edges and still soft in the middle. Do not over bake. Transfer to rack to cool.

Yields about 4 dozen (2 1/2-inch) cookies.
