Sift in 1 cup of flour and 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda into the bowl.

Use fingers to push the sifted ingredients through and mix until combined.

Bake the cookies for about 10 minutes for a soft and chewy texture or 12 minutes for a slightly crunchy edge.

After baking, allow the cookies to cool before serving.
