I mixed my cookie batter to make thumbprint cookies, however I didn't have time to bake them so I refrigerated the dough overnight. Now the dough is too sticky and the cookies are coming out flat. How do I remedy this? Should the dough be room temperature or cold? Should I add more flour to the batter? I'm afraid that it might take away the flavor.
Please help!

My recipe calls for the dough to be refrigerated overnight. I use a frozen (I put several metal ones in the freezer and when one warms up, I swap with a cold one) to measure out even dough balls.
If yours did not tell you to refrigerate the dough, bring it to room temp before you work with it. Use a little Pam or butter on your spoon to prevent sticking.
Do not put them on a hot (or warm) cookie sheet (it should be at room temp). I would not add anything to them.
Hope you can save the dough! Post back with updates.
Normally dough like this should be refrigerated overnight or for a few hours before making the cookies. When you take the dough out of the refrigerator it should sit out and be at room temp before working with the dough.
