Bake the Cookies:
Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Press a small amount of the crunch topping onto the top of each cookie dough ball.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
