marshmallow 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2011 okie some progress report... finally tried my Doraemon cookie cutter with a simple butter cookie recipe. sorry froggy, didn't use the one you supplied cos haven't gotten baking powder yet pics to be up later... forgot to upload them~ verdict on first batch of cookie : smells good in oven, but taste wise, not great at all... pretty bland~ i still have half the dough left in fridge, is there anyway to savage it (make it taste better)? original recipe is really simple: 310g flour 225g butter 100g sugar 1 egg 1/2 tsp vanilla extract Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once I forgot to add to cake, end product is just flatter, no difference in taste as for yr second question, that's a tough one. Dunno how to salvage the formed dough, sorry. Why not just cut simple cookie rounds, then add icing to enhance taste? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why not just cut simple cookie rounds, then add icing to enhance taste? okie okie i'll upload later when my boss is away for meeting.... *Shhhhhh....* btw, i tasted a few in my first batch, and i think i know why liao... seems like some have been over-baked so it doesn't taste so good (notably, some doraemons at one side of the baking tray has "darker complexion" than the rest ). Those with "fairer" skin actually tasted quite okie so in the end, i baked the 2nd batch without changing anything to the dough, but pay close attention to baking time and rotated the tray more often. Though some incident occurred.... shall talk about it later Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pixie 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2011 AHHHH.. Inspired by the cakes and cookies here, the baking noob has decided to launch a butter cookie attack. But while my cookie is spinning in the micorwave cum conventional oven, I am not sure if my cookie sheet is microwave safe. Anyone knows if we can put thatinto such a monster?

But while my cookie is spinning in the micorwave cum conventional oven, I am not sure if my cookie sheet is microwave safe. Anyone knows if we can put thatinto such a monster? if you are using the conventional oven function, microwave is not on, unless you choose combination. since microwave is not on, then it will just act like a normal oven and your cookie sheet can be used. hope it helps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
