If you find the dough is sticking to your hands like crazy, you can either flour your hands, or mix some additional flour into the dough to
absorb some of the
moisture (this would be the better option for these particular cookies as any
excess flour
on the tops of the cookies from your fingers would be visible after they have baked).
Let the second sides cook for 20 - 30 seconds before removing and placing
on a plate lined with paper towels to
absorb the
excess moisture, or if you're making a big batch for guests and you want to keep the pancakes warm ahead of time, in a warm oven until they arrive and you are ready to serve.
