Notes
**I've noticed pastry flour can have different weights by brand. I used Hodgson Mill brand which weighs about 4.5 ounces per cup. If you're using a different brand or bulk bin pastry flour, you might have to use a little more flour to get 4.5 ounces in a cup.
Cookies will spread less if you shape the dough into mounds, chill the mounds and bake the chilled mounds.
