Join the discussionYummy recipe, is the dough sticky when mixed before you chill? Mine seemed a litte dry, just wondering. Have it in the fridge now. Thanks so much
I find the dough very pliable (like a soft play dough) before chilling. When measuring flours and starches, I stir the flour, spoon it into the cup then level with a straight edge in order to measure the flours accurately. Maybe add a bit of moisture to the dough to soften. I hope they worked out well for you!
Turned out perfectly! Thank you!
I know this says 15 servings, but how many cookies is that?
Hi Kewscha, This should make 30 cookies. Hope this helps! ~OAMM
