ملاحظة الطاهي: Cooling the syrup completely prevents the cookies from getting too soggy.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently with your hands until just combined. Do not overmix the dough, as this can make the cookies tough.

ملاحظة الطاهي: Overmixing develops gluten, which is not ideal for these tender cookies.
