- A little secret I like to make my cookies a little bigger and if this is the case you will have four cookies in each row, only three rows will fit on cookie sheet. This will make about 2 dozen cookies. If you prefer your cookies soft like me remove them from the cookie sheet after 1 minute. If you like them crunchy remove them from the pan after 5 minutes and let set for an extra 10. I know it seems like a lot but trust me when I say it's worth it.
