Stacey, there are 2 things I can think of here. First, yes the dough should still be cold when it goes into the oven. If you work quickly, you won’t need to refrigerate. Otherwise though, pop the tray into the frig for at least 20 minutes before baking.
Second, make sure you are using 9 1/4 ounces of flour (2 cups). Different measuring methods may produce different amounts of flour. If your cookies still spread too much, increase the flour on the next batch by 1/4 cup. Hope this helps.

Do you refrigerate the shaped dough before you bake it? I noticed my cookies were spreading quite a bit, so I took the last batch and put the pieces in the fridge for a few minutes before shaping them into quarter moons. It seemed to help. Thanks for your help.
