A trick for making drop cookies the same size and shape: use a spring-handled cookie or ice-cream scoop.
5
If you dont want to put a lot of time or effort into making cookies, then you can easily make cookie bars. Just spread all the cookie dough into a 13 x 9 inch or a 13 x 18 greased baking pan. It just depends on how thick you want your cookie bars. Bake at 375 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes, until light golden brown or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
