For perfectly round cookies, use an ice cream scoop to portion out the dough. If the dough is too soft to handle, chill it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before scooping. Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor and melting consistency. Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
