# Notes:

01 - For ingredient substitutions, use any nut or seed butter for those avoiding peanuts. Ensure the butter is solid at room temperature.
02 - Avoid using coconut sugar as it doesn't yield the same texture.
03 - Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days at room temperature or freeze for up to 2 months.
04 - If adding chocolate, let it harden before stacking the cookies to prevent sticking.
