I get asked a lot of baking and decorating questions and I thought it would be helpful to post some of the more frequently asked questions so that everyone could read the responses.
One of the more recurring questions has to do with baking chocolate chip cookies. Recently we received this picture from a friend wondering what happened to the cookies she had so desperately wanted.
Flat cookies are usually the result of one of two things:
1) Ingredients were measured incorrectly. Always use cups that measure fluid ounces for liquids and cups for dry ingredients. If you half or double a recipe make sure you divide or multiply evenly for all of the ingredients.
2) The butter was too soft. When you're baking a cake you want your butter to be nice and soft, but when you're baking cookies you only need to leave the butter out for 15 minutes.
Feel free to send any questions you may have. Happy baking!
