The bottoms of my cookies are burning. :\ I've put Pam on my cookie sheet, but it only helped a bit. No idea why?

if you have 2 racks in your oven


put your cookies on the top rack and put a cookie sheet underneath it on the bottom rack


this will dissipate direct heat to the bottom of the cookie sheet that your cookies are on to prevent uneven cooking

Totally side bar, but did you know you can set a frito on fire with a match? It makes good kindling.

This is totally sad, but I only own one cookie sheet. sad Our oven is very weird - sometimes it runs very hot, others, not so much.

tin foil the bottom rack

pretty much anything to prevent direct heat from the heating element in the bottom

my old oven used to burn the bottoms of the cookies all the time. when i would bake biscuits, it would do it as well. after trying various positions of racks, and even different cookie sheets/pizza pans, i decided to purchase a pizza stone. i know it sounds odd, but the stone seems to work flawlessly. u should give it a try

Not sure if this would help or not. But I always use Parchment paper or whatever it is called and use the top most rack. Also what the others said about deflecting the heat is a true too.

Agreed. Also, try out the air bake cookie sheets. They'll help.

We have a crappy oven and I usually cook things a few minutes over what the recipe says, then let them cook on their own for a couple mintues after removing them from the oven on the cookie sheet before removing them.
