  1. Remove the cookies from the pans while they are still warm, or they may stick.
  2. If the cookies are very soft, do not remove them from the pans until they are cool enough and firm enough to handle. Cookies may be soft when hot but become crisp when cool.
  3. Do not cool cookies too rapidly or in cold drafts, or they may crack.
  4. Cool completely before storing.
