Standard baking procedure...
Most of the time, you wouldn’t even need a recipe to follow. For most cakes and cookies, just follow standard baking procedure:
1. "cream" together the fats and sugars
2. add eggs one at a time, beating after each
3. sift together the dry ingredients
4. "add alternately" the dry and liquid ingredients
5. stir in flavoring pieces by hand
Use an electric mixer to save time! Use medium speed on your mixer.
Sifting eliminates lumps and helps in even distribution of ingredients
Add 1/3 dry, then 1/3 wet…repeat ‘til all ingredients are used
An electric mixer at this point would break up the chips, raisins, nuts, etc.
Air + egg whites = volumeSlide15
After baking...
Cookies are removed from the oven, cooled for a couple of minutes, removed from the pans with a spatula, and placed on a wire rack for cooling.Slide16
