Article: Make sure that the dough is neither too thick nor too thin so that the cookies are cooked throughout without burning their surfaces.

What is a summary?
Roll the chilled cookie dough into a layer that is about 3/8" (10 millimeters) thick. Place a thin layer of flour in the bottom of a shallow bowl. Dip a round cookie cutter in the flour and press the cookie cutter into the dough. Place the cut cookies on a cutting board. Add a piece of wax paper on top of the first layer of cookies before adding a second layer of cookies. Continue layering the cookies until you have cut out as many cookies as you can. Group the leftover dough into a ball and roll it out again. Cut out more cookies, using as much of the leftover dough as possible, and place the cookies onto the wax paper.
