For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom to the dough. If you don't have corn syrup, you can substitute with pancake syrup or honey, but it may slightly alter the flavor and texture. Chilling the dough is crucial for preventing the cookies from spreading too much during baking. For perfectly round cookies, try using a round cookie cutter or drinking glass. Store baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
