Break off pieces of the dough into chunks around the size of a tablespoon, and roll the pieces of dough into balls.

Place the balls of dough on the baking sheet, leaving about 5cm space in between them to allow for them spreading out during baking.

Place in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cookies are a light golden brown.

Leave the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes after taking them out of the oven, then move them to a wire rack to cool completely.
