  3. Add the contents of the jar and gently stir until combined.
  4. Place in refridgerator for 30 minutes
  5. Scoop 2 tablespoon portions of dough. Place the dough balls onto a parchment lined baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F for 9-11 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers of the cookies are slightly undone. Place baking sheets on racks and cool completely.
