Start timing when mixture reaches a full rolling boil; this is the trick to successful cookies. If you boil too long the cookies will be dry and crumbly. If you don't boil long enough, the cookies won't form properly. Cookies made with butter tend to spread out because it melts at body temperature—a much lower temperature than other solid fats—resulting in a "melt-in-your-mouth" burst of flavor. In fact, butter is an essential flavor agent in certain cookies, such as shortbreads.
