You can also use foil on the bottom of your cookies sheet.

Subject: [CnD] baking cookies when totally blind.
Hi, Claudia,
I am totally blind and have been baking cookies for years. I find that
timing and my nose are the two best guides for knowing when the cookies
are done. I line my cookie sheets with parchment paper, so I don't have
to grease them. If the recipe says "10 to 12 minutes", I check them at
ten minutes, by touching the top of the cookie gently with my finger tip.
If the cookie springs back, I know they are done. If it doesn't then I
leave them in for the remainder of the time before testing them again.
Because every oven is different, you need to test the cookies. There is a
certain fragrance to cookies that are done-hard to describe, but it is
that warm, wonderful smell of baked cookies.
Hope this helps.
Alice
