❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Fluffy Chocolate Chip Cookies
1. Why are my cookies not fluffy?
If your cookies are flat, you may have skipped chilling the dough. Chilling solidifies the butter and prevents spreading. Also, make sure your baking soda is fresh and you measured the flour correctly by spooning it into the cup.
2. Can I use margarine instead of butter?
I recommend using real butter for the best flavor and texture. Margarine has more water, which can make cookies spread more and become less fluffy. If you must substitute, use a stick margarine with at least 80% fat.
3. How do I store these cookies?
Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. To keep them extra soft, add a slice of bread to the container. It will absorb excess air and keep the cookies tender.
4. Can I freeze the cookie dough?
Yes, you can freeze the dough. Scoop it into balls and place them on a baking sheet in the freezer until solid. Then transfer to a freezer bag. Bake from frozen, adding 2 to 3 minutes to the baking time.
5. Can I use whole wheat flour?
You can substitute up to half of the all purpose flour with whole wheat flour. Using all whole wheat flour will make the cookies denser and less fluffy. The texture will be different, but they will still taste good.
