Cookie is a very popular snack, especially for young children. Therefore, housewives can refer to how to make delicious, attractive and standard cookies with a golden crust, soft dough and fatty flavor.
Choose the temperature, heat the oven
The first and important secret to helping cookies achieve deliciousness and beautiful color when baked is to adjust the baking temperature to be stable. Housewives should heat the oven for at least 15 minutes before baking to achieve a balanced temperature inside.
The ideal baking temperature for baking cookies is about 170 to 180 degrees Celsius. If the baking temperature is too low, the cookies will melt and become flat, and in return, the temperature is too high, causing the outer crust to burn and taste bitter. Placing the baking tray in the middle of the oven will help the heat spread evenly to bake the cookies until golden brown.
Notes in powder processing
To prevent the cake from becoming dry and stiff, the dough processing technique plays an important role. Housewives should not knead the dough too thoroughly, let the dough rest in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before baking.
This method will help the fat in the butter melt slower when exposed to high temperatures, helping to create a soft, porous cake structure. Using a little more brown sugar is also a way to keep the cake naturally moist thanks to the available sugarcane molasses.
Time to take the cake out of the oven
Many housewives have a habit of waiting until the cookies are hard before taking them out, this is a mistake that causes the cookies to dry and crack. Accordingly, cookies will continue to cook with excess heat even after being out of the oven.
The best time to take the cake is when the edges have turned pale yellow but the center of the cake still feels soft and slightly wet.
After taking the cakes out, let them rest on the baking tray for about 5 minutes before switching to a support, which will help cool the cakes as well as maintain the smoothness inside.
Eye-catching colors
If you want cookies to be golden brown, spread a thin layer of fresh milk on the surface before putting them in the oven. In addition to lining the baking tray with parchment paper instead of spreading butter directly on the tray, it also helps the base of the cookies not to be too dark or charred, which will make the cookies more fragrant and have an attractive appearance.
