    My cookies are flat, what can I do?
    Community Answer
    Try adding less butter or different temperature butter. Maybe use a mixture of cake flour, bread flour, and all purpose flour. Any of these things might be the issue.

      Tips

      • Get the big tub of cookie mix because it is cheaper and it lasts a long time.
        Thanks
      • If you like to dunk your cookies in your milk, be careful you don't drop the cookie in or half breaks and sinks to the bottom of the cup. Especially if the cookies are fresh from the oven and are still a little warm.
        Thanks
      • If you like melted,gooey chocolate,pop the cookie,after it has cooled,into the microwave for about 30-40 seconds.Be careful when handling the cookie,it'll be piping hot.
        Thanks
