If you are anything like me, you love cookies. They are easy to bake and even easier to eat! Baking cookies is definitely more of a science than an art, because the individual ingredients and baking techniques can have a huge impact on your cookies. Some of my favorite recipes are cookies, so today I want to share with you some easy cookie baking tips that everyone should know. Learn important tips on how to bake the perfect cookies at home every time!
1. Take a chill

Chill your cookie dough before baking. Leaving cookie dough in the fridge overnight allows it to absorb liquids and results in a full, yummy cookie.
2. Keep them apart

Store different kinds of cookies in separate containers. Moist cookies will soften crispy ones.
3. Chewy Or Crispy Cookies

Like chewy or prefer crispy? Baking your cookies a little less results in chewier cookies. Baking a little longer makes them crispier.
4. Melting Magic

Want to know the magic secret to chewy cookies? First, melt your butter halfway in a just-warm oven. Then cool it to room temperature in the fridge before creaming with sugar.
5. Cookie Cravings

When making cookie dough, make an extra roll and freeze for later cravings. Roll it into a log shape, wrap tightly in wax paper, and store in a plastic zipper bag in the freezer.
6. Picture Perfect

When making chocolate chip cookies, set some of the chocolate morsels aside. Place a few of them on top of each cookie before baking for a beautiful presentation.
7. Halloween Helps

Got leftover Halloween candy? Chop chocolate candies or candy corn pieces to use in place of chocolate chips in cookies.
8. Burned Batch

When you burn the bottoms of a batch of cookies, don’t throw them out. Use a cheese grater to scrape off the burned part. Spread chocolate frosting between two cookies to make chocolate cookie sandwiches.
