Ngl the cookie w the least amount of flour looks so good
Bit like a brandy snap.
now I wanna try purposefully do too little flour
They are, I’ve done it quite a few times before 😂
Yep, you just don't bake it quite as long to get the perfect chewy/crisp, lacey texture.
exactly what I was thinking. crunchy cookies on top
I actually kinda like the too much flour cookies, they’re kinda chewy but have a lot of cookie in them for the small circle it is, they also just have good mouth feel, I really don’t like crispy things so yeah
Same
I made cookies like that yesterday and the dough was still a tiny bit raw in the middle (I didn't use eggs dw) and oh my goood that's the best thing I've ever tasted
me too
Same
Honestly the one with "too much" flour looks DELICIOUS!!
Ik
I intentionally make mine this way
@@hay_67me too I like it this way better
The one with too little flour actually looks good af
Measuring by volume is not done where I live (Asia). Always by weight for dry stuff, and by milliliters for liquid.
same for uk
in europe too
Ok?
Yeah but for us Europeans 1 meter is 1 meter and not 9 n half feets on a grill cheese xD
All of these cookies look good. Depending on my mood and what kind of cookie I want, I use a little too much or too little flour and I use different temperature butter. 🧐
That's why you all should use mass measurements.
Correct is relative, depending on how you like your cookies. Give me a puffy over-floured cookie over a thin one any day.
Almost like using weight is more accurate than 'fill a cup with it'
The one with too much flour was so beautiful though! The one that was “just right” didn’t seem very appealing to me. But its all subjective of course! Im very picky about cookies.
Something ive started doing lately is replacing some of the sugar with light corn syrup. You do have to adjust the flour a bit, but if you like soft cookies then omg its a GAME CHANGER!!! i definitely used to feel like its so bad to put corn syrup in baked goods.. but like.. its already a cookie. And white sugar is already refined so i think we are joking ourselves if it seems less bad. Anyways yea, the corn syrup keeps the cookies so perfectly soft and they stay that way for a while. I used to always keep my cookies in the freezer so they wont dry out because they would dry out within a day of being in a sealed container… but after the corn syrup, now they can last multiple days without drying. Anyways i never see people using corn syrup in cookie recipes so i thought i would share because its such a game changer.
How do you usually adjust the recipes? I'd love to try this!
It’s so helpful in baking when recipes describe what the batter should be like.
This is a great video! I usually test it by touching the dough with my finger - if a lot of dough sticks to it I need more flour, if no dough at all sticks to it I need more liquid, if I have a few dots/crumbles of dough sticking to my finger I’m good!!
tbh the cookie with the least flour looks the yummiest
How about this…. Don’t use cups! Use scales every time
oh my God this is so helpful… i had no idea why my cookies never looked like the recipe
Tbh if I had to choose only one cookie out of those three I’d do the one with the least it just looks so good
Thank you and thank god for your video - I've made puffy choco chip cookies twice this week and I've been wondering why they weren't spread out at all.
I like the packed and level method. I bake my cookies on the longer side to get them crunchy.
Honestly Over looks so good 🍪
What’s your usual cookie recipe? I’d love to try it
Dang this was so helpful! Good to know!
Great experiment!
I’ve learned different flour brands may weigh more or less per cup
I like over perfect to dip in milk
I think we found cookie crumbl's recipe;
Too much flour
Ive always fluffed n scooped it made the most sense
Under looking mighty fine
The too little one looks scrumptious
I love the too much flour cookies since I personally don’t like crispy stuff….I just like that mouth feel…and they’re delicious ❤
Thanks! I make pie a lot so this will help when making the dough
Omfg so its not my baking soda making my cookies so puffy!!!!!!! You just saved my life
or, use a scale instead, lol, they don't cost a lot of money and I find there's less to wash up after
Omg this is why my cookie dough was so dry earlier😭 I needed this 5 hrs ago
Honestly I like mine similar to the over flour one but my recipe is slightly different to others as there are people in my family who can’t digest gluten and I have had to adapt it but I’ve made one that is crunchy, chewy, cakey and soft all at once I love it
40 year baker here and exact measuring is a fantasy! I've made thousands of batches of cookies and never the same measurements twice!
somewhere between just right and over is my goal.
Different flours have different densities and weigh less / more per cup
we’ll mistakes happen that’s why we don’t give up and keep trying until we eventually get it.
I always do to little flour 😂, the cookie with not enough flour do be busting tho
Or... just use grams instead of cups
Not everyone has a weight
@@silverfeatheryt_9755a weighing scale is one of the most basic things in a kitchen
@@silverfeatheryt_9755neither does everyone has Cups.
@@funkybadlozza1537really? Im a baker and I don’t have one of those. That’s why I have measuring cups 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
Or oz
The only problem is, most recipes require a lot of sugar and when you lessen the amount, the ratio of flour to sugar is different which can lead to that denser cookie so I don't know what to do
Oh... So that's why my cookies barely spread 😃
ima still eat all 3
One time me and my friend were making cookies. We were like 10 or something and we put waaaaaay less flour on accident and it was basically melted chocolate 🤣 it was still pretty good tbh
Wow I never knew not to pack the measuring cup
oh my gosh my cookies have been bad for years and i finally know why😊 thank you so much 😁😁
Ngl, mine, wasnt like any of those 😅
ngl we should stop using "cups/tbsp/pinch" for measurements worldwide 😤
Thank you!
the best cookie here? the raw. gimme that dough.
When I make cookies, I add extra chocolate chips so it's soft and chocolatey
All three where still delicious though
Not using enough looks the best
I have most definitely been using to much flower
Idk, I make cookies that look like the perfect mesured one and pack it. Might just be my recipe that prepared for that but mine isn’t all round like that 🤷♀️ but still great tips. I like the softer cookies anyways
I don’t care, if it’s a cookie it’s in my stomach
The correct method to measure flour is to scoop it out with a measuring cup the level it off the an offset spatula.shaking it can actually leave u with to little flour.
correction: now u see how important it is to not put enough flour in a cookie. mmmmm looks so goooood :3
The 'under' recipe looks delicious
Who would eat them anyway gang 👇
The too much flour looks the best
I am trying to make a cookie dupe for a company (holddasugar) that uses vital wheat gluten as the only flour in their cookies. I can't even remotely get the texture to come out properly while using vital wheat gluten. It comes out stretchy / spongy in the wrong way. I've played around with the amount of liquid, temperature, but am not sure what will help. Any suggestions? Help!
you know what i say??
a cookie is a cookie. imma eat it no matter what
Omg no wonder my cookies were turning out so bad
CRUNCHY
Imma make sure I don’t add enough then
Which one tasted the best? Lettuce know!
Honestly I would still eat all of them!
Thank you ❤
I was alwaus told my butter was too soft but ig I used not enough flower
but how do you get rid of the flour after taste cookies have? i dont know what i'm doing wrong?!
Thank u 🤍
But what if the person who made the recipe packed in the flour?
Over looks good to me 😂
I always just scoop and shake. I stopped using a butter knife to scrape the excess off the top because my container opening is only large enough for the measuring cup and it makes a huge mess. I would love to get a scale, but batteries I don't want to have to buy and finding a good non battery powered scale is a pain.
The batteries last months, if not over a year. And scales are soo cheap! Like £10 seriously, your baking will thank you, go and buy electric scales!!!
I prefer the least amount. Looks delish🤣😂
Honestly i would eat all 3 I don't discriminate... All look good.
I’ll go with a little less flour, that’s the way I like them but I never knew the science… thank you. Flat, chewy cookies her I come.
I desperately want the under flour cookies...
and yet the US still won't use measured ingredients or the metric system?
The one with the “right” amount of flour, looks horrible
I'd still eat them all😂 cookies are cookies after all 😅
i put 401 instead of 400. now it's 1/400 worse 😓
too much flour cookies are delish
1 cup of AP flour is 120g
I think the one with less flour is better
I think this is really helpful for everyone cause cookie politics is EXTREMELY controversial as I learned at Christmas 😅😅😅
Mm under looks delicious 😋
Metric way to go 😉 ( so easy when you are a German😂)
I thought it was 120 grams per cup of flour?
Also way simpler, just measure 130g right away, why bothering with first putting it in cups and then weighing it anyway???
Whats the normal recipe
Anybody else getting Walmart vibes off that blue vest? No disrespect, those people work hard.
Oh wow! Thanks for this info! I always struggle with the right amount of flour 😅 but it was nice to see the outcomes of each! So thanks again! I hope you enjoyed the cookies❤
Here’s some good news for you by the way!!
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”
1 Corinthians 15:3-4 KJV
“and brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.”
Acts 16:30-31 KJV❤❤
Have a nice day!
That's not entirely accurate...1 cup of flour generally weighs 120g 1 cup wheat flour generally weighs 130g different types will have different weights also moisture in the air weighing it in winter vs spring vs summer
Over is yummy
Add less flour got it 👍
An easier way is to just use the scales! Lots of bakers have covered this topic and the reasons behind it.
If you’re baking you should only measure with a scale
People who prefer the least amount 👇
