      Making the Kit Kat cookie. Looks so good! My question is – after you refrigerate the dough for an hour should it still be sticky? Should I be able to roll in a ball? Or just spoon onto cookie sheet??

        Hi Lena ~ the dough will still be somewhat sticky because of the oil, but you should be able to roll it into balls just fine after refrigerating. Sometimes I pop the dough back into the refrigerator while the cookies are baking, so it can remain chilled until I’m ready to use it again. Hope that helps… and enjoy your cookies! 🙂
