When it comes to cookies, everyone has their own preference - whether you like them cakey or chewy.Here are some tips to help you bake the perfect taste! 📝
🧑🍳 The key to achieving your desired cookie texture lies in subtle tweaks to the recipe measurements. Simply adjust the amounts of FAT, SUGAR, and FLOUR.
🔍What makes cookies chewy vs cakey?
- Sugar Type:Brown sugar packed with molasses, adds moisture. This moisture is retained during baking and results in a chewier cookie.
- Fat Type:Melting butter before mixing can produce a chewier cookie, whereas creaming cold butter often leads to a more cakey texture.
- Flour Type: The protein content in the flour can affect texture. All-purpose flour tends to yield chewier cookies compared to cake flour.
· Chewy Cookie:
✅ If you want a tremendous chewy cookie, suggest using all-purpose flour and a lot of butter! A good ratio of fat to flour would be 1/2 cup of butter for every cup of flour.
· Cakey Cookie:
✅If you want a cakey cookie, use cake flour and baking powder instead of baking soda. Also, make sure not to overmix your dough!
