These cookies are best served warm, but they are also delicious at room temperature. For a pretty finish, lightly dust the tops with powdered sugar before serving. To store, keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature or refrigerate for up to a week. Freeze for longer storage, up to 3 months.
