Cookies
baking cookies, flat rookie sheets (without
sides) produce better-looking cookies. Cookies baked
in a jelly roll pan (short sides around) may have
darker edges and pale or light browning may occur.
Do not use a cookie sheet so large that it touches the
walls or the door of the oven. Never entirely cover
a shelf with a large cookie sheet.
For best results, use
one cookie sheet in the oven
