Let the cookies sit on the pan itself for about 2 minutes. Then transfer them on to a cooling rack and let them cool down completely.
These sugar cookies will become crispy as they cool down.
CAN I USE OIL INSTEAD OF BUTTER IN THIS EASY COOKIE RECIPE
Yes you can use any oil preferably, flavorless oil like canola oil in place of butter in this easy cookie recipe.

CAN I MAKE THIS 3 INGREDIENT SUGAR COOKIES WITH MARGARINE INSTEAD OF BUTTER
Yes you can make this 3 ingredient sugar cookies with same amount of margarine in place of butter.But,
1)the sugar cookies will spread more and so they will become thinner than the cookies that are made with butter.
