Cookbook talk:Soft Sugar Cookies

Excellent recipe, a bit too greasy for me, needed to add a touch more than 3 cups of flour to make them just right.--198.48.231.212 (discuss) 20:35, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

I've made this cookie recipe a lot, and it's quite forgiving for modification (as the flour added is supposed to get it to a certain consistency, rather than adding a specific amount, I think) so I currently have a variation prototype in the works. It's loosely based on a family chocolate/spice cake recipe, but it still needs some work in its current form, which is why I'm putting it here rather than on the main page. The measurements are a little off as I made a different batch size for my test, but for the batch size listed on the main page it should be roughly: 1/4 tsp of nutmeg, 2 tsp of cinnamon, 3 tbs of cocoa powder (thank you to the contributor that figured that out and put it in the tips section), 1 tsp vanilla extract, 0.5 tsp lemon extract, and 2.5 tbs coffee (Liquid, NOT powder). For my next batch, I'm going to up the amount of these mix ins that are added, as they taste great but, it's not as prominent as I would like.

Today's prototype test batch used 0.5 tsp nutmeg, 1 tbs cinnamon, 3 tbs cocoa powder, 1.5 tsp vanilla extract, 0.5 lemon extract, 3 tbs coffee. Will update with results in a bit --AceDragonfly (discuss • contribs) 15:53, 21 July 2021 (UTC)
