Shoutout to the lady at the Portland farmers market who said to weigh my flour
I always scooped flour straight from the bag with the measuring cup, and my cookies came out flat every single time. She told me that one packed cup can weigh almost 30 grams more than a light one, so I started using my $12 kitchen scale and the last 4 batches have held their shape. Turns out the recipe was never the problem, it was how I loaded the cup. Curious how many of you weigh your dry stuff or just scoop and pray like I used to?
