How do I prevent my cookies from spreading too much

Sure thing! Here are five different ways to keep your cookies from spreading too much:

**Chill the Dough**: Pop your cookie dough in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before baking. This helps solidify the fats and keeps them from melting too quickly in the oven.

**Use More Flour**: If your dough seems too wet or sticky, try adding a bit more flour. Just be careful not to overdo it, or your cookies might turn out too dry.

**Check Your Oven Temperature**: Make sure your oven is at the right temperature. An oven that's too hot can cause cookies to spread too much. Use an oven thermometer if you have one!

**Don’t Overmix the Dough**: When you mix your ingredients, stop as soon as everything is combined. Overmixing can lead to a more runny dough, which means more spreading.
