Once you’re done baking the cookies, cooling them quickly is key to achieving the perfect texture. If you’re not careful, you can easily end up with a batch of soggy, unappetizing treats.

The good news is that you can take some simple steps to ensure that your cookies come out perfectly. Making adjustments to the cooling process like using a cooling rack and timing the process carefully can really make a difference in the end result.

Baking the Cookies:
