Great Tips For Baking Cookies

* If a method calls for butter, you can substitute with either margarine or shortening.

* Although cookies made from butter or margarine are flatter than those made with shortening, they have a great rich flavor. To get the best of both worlds, use half of each instead.

* If you plan on using a nonstick baking pan, lower the recommended oven temperature by 25 degrees. This will prevent the bottoms from getting too brown.

* For easy cleanup if you are not using a nonstick pan you can use parchment paper instead.

* When baking some batches of cookies, make sure you have more than one baking sheet. If you place dough on a hot or warm sheet it will spread right away and you will end up with flat cookies.

* all the time bake in the middle of the oven. Your cookie sheet should be small adequate that oven heat can categorically surround it. A good rule is to have at least 2 inches of space on all sides.

* Do not place two baking sheets in the oven at the same time. Some will over cook and some will end up under cooked.

* Spacing the cookies at least one and a half to two inches apart, along with the edge of the pan, will help make sure even cooking all around.

* An easy and great tool to use for drop cookies is an ice cream scoop. It will make your job easier and all your cookies will be the same size.

These are tips I have picked up from all over and many people. They work for me and I hope they will help you bake delicious cookies too.
