:: HELPFUL HINTS ::
Q: Why are my cookies not spreading, dry or crumbly?
A: You may have added too much flour.
DO... (spoon-and-level method)
Fluff the flour in the container before scooping it out. Lightly spoon the flour directly into the measuring cup until it mounds well above the top of the measuring cup. Using the back of the dinner knife (non-serrated side is facing the flour), sweep the knife over the top of the cup to remove the excess flour.
DON'T...
Scoop the flour from the container directly with the measuring cup. Shake or tap the cup with the spoon to pack down the flour. (These steps will more densely pack the flour into the measuring cup, resulting in too much flour)
