Did you refrigerate the dough before baking them? Mine only spread a teeny tiny bit. Also, when halving the recipe, I find that I need to add a bit more flour, although another member on here says she doesn't need to do that. You could also decrease the leavening or eliminate it completely.

Yup put in fridge. I even put some in before baking to harden them.
I made a batch with out baking powder also. Didn't make a difference. I lowered temp to 325 which they spread less.
Ugh

So strange but it's driving me nuts
AI made thicjker ones which spread then I tried thin ones which were a little better. How thin Do you roll your cookies? I don't want them too thin because it's like " where's the cookie?" Haha
add a bit more flour, don't use any baking powder, let the dough rest in the fridge for an hour before rolling out. roll to 1/4 inch, Bake at 400 f.
AI did a batch with no baking powder. I also did 400. I used same batch and tried 325. Same results. Maybe it feels my stress haha
