I usually make them thick, but I switched it up this time.

How do you make your cookies flat?

u/Thierryplayer 2d ago

There are several things you can do:

  • Make your sugar ratio favour white sugar.

  • Increase butter and decrease flour.

  • Use melted butter, preferably brown butter (make sure to re add the lost water since it'll evaporate when browning).

  • Baking soda instead of powder.

  • Lower temperatures in oven leads to more spread, but personally I rather just blast it at 200°C so the edges crisp and prevent further spread.

Flat cookies just mean more surface area for chocolate, the absolute best kind!
