RECIPE NOTES AND HELPFUL TIPS
Butter or spray your mini muffin pan very well. I have had them stick in my older pan.
Only leave cookies in the pan for a couple of minutes to cool.
Drape a large clean kitchen towel over the pan and flip to release the cookies so a lot less damage is done to the cookies and your pan than trying to remove them with a knife
