Tips
Want to make sure that your smores cookies turn out perfectly? Here are a few tips to help you.
- When measuring the flour, be sure not to pack it into the measuring cup. This will result in too much flour and make your cookies dense.
- To get perfect, round cookies, use a cookie scoop. This will also help to ensure that all of your cookies are the same size so they cook evenly.
- Be careful to not overmix the batter. This will result in tough cookies.
- If you want to make sure that your cookies are cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of a cookie. If it comes out clean, the cookie is done.
