    Note: only use cold butter if you have a mixer. Trying to cream the butter and sugar by hand when the butter is cold is a nightmare.

      Very true. Even though I have a mixer, I prefer to just use soft butter (or usually i’d brown it and cool it til it just starts to harden but its still soft) and just chill it in the fridge at least an hour before baking. Makes great cookies every time

    So when I was younger I had a science fair. For my project I compared cold, room temp. and MELTED butter in a cookie. And the melted butter actually made the most amazing cookie! You have to chill the dough (if you dont have ro already) but it makes the perfect crunch and and soft inside! I 10/10 recommend trying it! (I also got second place on that science fair for everyone who never cared 😊)

    I like both of them, but using soft butter or browning the butter taste the best to me, it’s soft and crunchy at the same time and taste delicious, don’t even get me started on how good browning the butter makes cookies taste 😋

    Can you tests to see what happens to texture and taste when you make cooking with less sugar , like much less or use sugar substitutes like honey,or dates

    I've heard of using vanilla jello for softness.... also softsilk cake mix... also try not to use browned cookie sheets as they will burn the bottom of your cookies

    • @rachel705
      @rachel705 Před rokem +1

      It has to be the vanilla cook and serve pudding that’s made by Jell-o though, the regular vanilla gelatin won’t work.

    The egg is also impacted by the temperate of itself or the butter being cold. Example, use a cold egg and German pancakes wont puff.

    • @preasidium13
      @preasidium13 Před rokem +1

      From my experience, Melted and browned butter typically make the cookie fudgier and more spread out. This is why a lot of fudgy brownie recipes call for less viscous oils and fats.
