6. 6

   Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

7. 7

   Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly soft.

   Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

9. 9

   Decorate the cooled cookies with icing and colorful sprinkles to resemble Christmas lights, if desired.
