For my recipe I cut the leavening in half.  It didn't hurt the taste or texture and it cut the spread.  I read in a cookbook that most recipes use to much leavening 

The recipe I was using actually doesn't contain any leavening.  I live at high altitude and my experiments with it just seemed to result in even more spread and my cookies fell apart.

I don't know your altitude, but I've baked mine in Boulder and Denver, Colorado, without any adjustments to the leavening, and they pretty much baked just as they do here in St. Louis.
