Vent: my chocolate chip cookies kept going flat and it took me 5 batches to figure out it was my butter
I baked 5 batches of chocolate chip cookies last Saturday and every single one came out of the oven looking like flat pancakes. I tried chilling the dough, I tried a different baking sheet, I even switched to a new bag of flour thinking that was the problem. It turns out my butter was sitting out on the counter for like 3 hours and got way too soft, so the cookies just melted into puddles in the oven. Now I only pull the butter out 20 minutes before mixing and they come out tall every time. Has anyone else ruined a whole afternoon of baking over something this dumb?
