One way to combat hot pans and still get a lot of cookies baked in a
short time is to have enough pans for 2 cycles through the oven.
While one set is in the oven, you can cool the next set and load it
up. I realize a lot of people probably already do that, but thought
I'd pass that on for folks who are new to baking.

Didn't know you could get the parchement pre-cut at GFS. I'll have to
check into that. I've been getting it a Wal-Mart on a roll. Thanks!
