 ===== Notes =====
-  * These can't be made vegan because of the egg yolks, but I don't see why they couldn't be made dairy-free. This was my first time making this recipe so I didn't want to mess with it too much, but I will try it sometime, just to see. [Edit: 12/10/25] Yup, they work fine with vegan butter, and taste great!
+  * These cookies are a good all-purpose vehicle for whatever "stuff" you want to add to them. In terms of chunky add-ins, I would keep it in the 1 1/2 to 2 c. range in terms of amounts.
-  * I have also made these as Coffee Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookies: added 1/4 c. instant expresso, 1 c. of toffee chips and 1 c. of semisweet chocolate chips
