Tips that Will Surely Help!
- Measure the flour: To avoid a “floury” taste and ensure the dough isn’t too hard or crumbly, use a kitchen scale to measure the flour. If you don’t have one, fluff the flour first and then sprinkle it into a measuring cup. Level off the top with a knife.
- Heat treat the flour in the oven: For an easier method, you can toast the flour in the oven instead of using the microwave. Preheat the oven to 350°F, spread the flour on a rimmed baking sheet, and bake for 12 minutes or until it reaches 165°F.
- Prepare flour in advance: To save time, you can heat treat the flour ahead of time. Once it cools, store it in an airtight container so it’s ready for your next batch of edible dough.
- Don’t fully melt the butter: If the butter is completely melted when you mix it with the sugar, the cookie dough might become too soupy.
- Make chocolate cookie dough: To create chocolate cookie dough, replace 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour with unsweetened cocoa powder. You don’t need to heat treat the cocoa powder; just add it to the butter mixture with the other flour.
