Recipe Notes
[My 2 Cents]
I'm not so much a fan of "chewy", so I prefer to cook mine a little longer. If you like chewy, by all means - go right ahead! If you like more of the crispy/crunchy texture like me, you will want to cook an additional 5-10 minutes. But watch close, because you don't want to burn or over cook them.
