Slight bubbling is simmering, idiot.

A hundred thousand refugees wish they had your stress.

Uhm, my cookies always come with the bottom burned :(
I'm getting an oven thermometer asap.

Use parchment paper.

Simmering is a food preparation technique in which foods are cooked in hot liquids kept just below the boiling point of water

>>7369976
M8 perishable food like meats and all pre-cooked foods have 4 hours in the "danger zone" (40-140 degrees Fahrenheit) before they become unsafe to eat. Chill m8.

Slight bubbling is not a full rolling boil, which is what happens to liquids when heated to boiling point. Slight bubbling means that the liquid is just under the boiling point, which is what simmering is.

that doesn't make sense

Yes!! Actually I was told to use it after my first failed attempt, so I did but the first batch still came out too brown; the second was a tad better because I took them out sooner. I'm still an oven virgin.

Yeah, probably a temperature issue with your oven. Also may want to try putting the rack with the baking sheet up a bit higher in the oven so it's a bit further up from the heating element on the bottom. Or possibly try a different baking sheet, I've got some two layer sheets that I use specifically for when I make cookies, there's space between the layers for air so the top layers where the cookies are doesn't get as hot as the lower part and the bottoms don't get overcooked.
