What Is The Creaming Method For Cookies?
The creaming method for cookies is a process of beating the softened butter and sugar until it becomes light and fluffy. Then, adding eggs, vanilla extract and dry ingredients such as flour, baking powder and salt in stages, resulting in a soft, pliable dough. This method helps to evenly distribute the butter throughout the dough, creating a tender and slightly crunchy texture. It is commonly used for butter-based cookies like sugar cookies, chocolate chip cookies, and shortbread.
