      Hi Aarthi.. I tried this recipe today.. My dough was too greasy even after keeping it in fridge for more than an hour.. I couldn't make perfect balls like yours 🙁 So i just scooped in the dough to the baking try.. the cookies were flat after baking.. and was soft in the center. When i allowed more time to make it crunchy, it got burnt at the bottom. Not sure where i went wrong. Can you help me pls.. Thanks a lot
