These are delicious!!I’ve made them several times. I get requests to bring these to church potlucks. Has anyone tried making these in a 13×9 or sheet on?
Yes, you can, but they’ll look and feel more like flat cookies than “muffin-top” style cookies. You may also have to keep an eye out and take them out littler earlier.

Hi! Thanks for pointing that out. It was a typo, which should have been 1/3 cup instead. We’ve fixed the typo. Thanks!
