Helpful Hints:
|
Most cookies are made this way - the shortening or margarine is creamed with the sugars. That means, they are mixed together until creamy. Dry ingredients are measured and mixed together in a separate bowl, then added to wet ingredients. By mixing only until ingredients are moistened, the dough won't be overmixed. The results? A tender cookie!
 |
Safety Tip:
|
Remember, the raw egg in this cookie dough makes it unsafe to eat until it is baked.
The hot baking temperature kills any bacteria that may be in the egg, and the finished cookies are safe and delicious.
