    3. Gradually combine the wet mixture into the flour mixture, stirring until a dough forms.
    4. Roll the dough into 12 even balls, then flatten each ball with a fork, creating a criss-cross pattern to flatten into the shape of a cookie.
    5. Place cookies in the refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes before serving to enjoy!
