Smookie Cookies
So here is my latest secret for thickening up these cookies. To the original recipe, I added an extra 1/2c. flour plus 2 tsp. cornstarch. I also used a round cookie cutter to reshape them when they were hot out of the oven….just swing the cookie around inside of the cutter. So if you want thicker cookies, give these a try! The first picture below is the most recent using these thickening tips. Here is another great cookie tip for you…Scoop out the dough and flash freeze on a cookie sheet. (Flash freeze means individually freezing each ball of dough) Then transfer the cookie dough balls to a freezer bag and bake them off as you want! This way you can enjoy freshly baked cookies on any given day without any of the work! If baking from frozen you may need to increase the bake time by 1-2 minutes.
