Tips & Tricks (5)

Cake Mix Consistency Magic 🥣
Chill the dough for 30 minutes before rolling to prevent sticky hands and help the cookies maintain a perfect shape during baking.
Cinnamon Sugar Coating Pro 🧂
Use a shallow, wide bowl for the cinnamon sugar mixture and roll cookies generously, ensuring an even, thick coating that caramelizes beautifully.
Moisture Maintenance Trick 💧
Don't overmix the batter - stop mixing as soon as ingredients are combined to keep the cookies soft and prevent a tough texture.
Perfect Scoop Technique 🍪
Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to create uniform cookie sizes, which ensures even baking and professional-looking results.
Storage Preservation Hack 🔒
Store cookies with a slice of bread in the container to maintain moisture and keep them soft for up to 5 days.
