There are many factors that could cause cookies to be flat rather than raised.
The amount of baking powder or baking soda.
Using plain milk when buttermilk called for.
Too much liquid
Too much fat (oil or butter)
Using butter or oil instead of shortening or lard
Greasing pan (causes cookies to spread)
Not allowing pan to cool before cooking successive batches (hot pan causes spreading.)
Forgot to include egg.
Recipe makes flat cookies, not puffy cookies - try a different recipe.Or put the measerment of bakingpowder or soda
Usually the more shortening a cookie has the more it will spread and flatten when baked. Also, more leavening agent will cause it to over rise and then fall which will produce a flat cookie. Some cookies do not have any leavening in them, they are rolled out and a cutter is used to shape them and they stay flat.
Cookies are flat because of the lack of gas bubbles. Add some baking soda or baking powder to make them not flat.
If you melt the butter you use in the batter it will make them go flat, instead soften the butter then whip it into the batter
Cookies can be flat for many reasons. Two common reasons are that the dough was already warm before you started to bake them, another is that you used butter instead of shortening.
over beating
the batter is too thin...
Less egg.
probably not
I believe pressed cookies are cookies that are rolled flat like gingerbread men or shortbread.
To make them rise and not be flat.
I have seen Flat around the bridge, track/stadium, and the entrance to Sanrio town! Have fun! And go give Flat those cookies!
When you're baking cookies, if you use shortening instead of butter, your cookies come out higher. They don't spread as much as they do with butter, so your cookies turn out like the ones in the pictures instead of flat.
Yes it will just be a bit flat and buttery xD
You will eat hard, flat, possibly tasty cookies. Baking soda helps the cookies rise. Without it, they stay flat, as does matzoh.
They will probably be a little flat, and possibly mushy.
Pretty much the same that happens during the baking of other types of cookies. But there are certain things in the recipe and directions which do make the difference between crisp cookies and other types. The amount of fat in the recipe, the length of time baked, as well as how thin or flat the cookies are before baking are things which can make the difference between crisp cookies and other types of cookies
Only if the recipe calls for it. Some recipes only call for Baking Powder. It is as simple as reading the recipe you have in front of you.
Baking sheets are flat cooking sheets with sides that are usually turned up slightly. They are often used to bake cookies.
