FAQ

  • Can I use a different type of flour?

    All-purpose flour works best, but you can try using whole wheat pastry flour for a slightly healthier option. You may need to add a little more milk if the dough is too dry.
  • Can I use oil instead of butter?

    Yes, you can substitute oil for butter. The cookie will have a slightly different texture, but it will still be delicious.
  • How do I know when the cookie is done?

    The cookie is done when it's slightly firm to the touch and no longer looks wet in the center. Be careful not to overcook it, as it will become tough.
