Can I use natural cocoa instead of Dutch-process?

Yes, but Dutch cocoa gives a richer color and smoother flavor.

Do I need a mixer for this recipe?

No mixer needed! A whisk and spatula are all you need for easy cleanup.

Can I make these cookies ahead?

Yes. Store dough balls in the freezer and bake as needed.

Why are my cookies dry?

Be sure not to overbake and measure flour accurately to keep them chewy.
