minus-squareUncaged_Jay@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 years agoI have one of those KitchenAid mixers, that’s what I used. I’m wondering if the butter didn’t melt after the fact while it was sitting in the bowl since these were the last ones that I made
minus-squareminorninth@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·2 years agoDid you scrape the bowl while mixing? KitchenAid mixers are great, but depending on what you’re mixing you need to scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula and then mix some more. I don’t think it’s over mixed, I think the cookies made from the batter that was stuck to the sides are under mixed.

minus-squareUncaged_Jay@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 years agoI think you might be right. Honestly, the number of different responses indicates it could’ve been pretty much everything
minus-squareAnnoyed_🦀 @monyet.cclinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 years agoWhat the other user said, maybe it’s just uneven-mixed batch from the side of the bowl. But if everything doesn’t checks out, then i’m out of idea 😅
