24
Q
  • Small amount of liquid is used
  • Prolong baking time
  • High contents of sugar and fat

A

crispiness

25
- high liquid content in the formulation - thick shape baked products - under baking produce softness - honey, molasses or corn syrup contributes softness
softness
26
- a low fat but high proportion of sugar and liquid - more eggs contents in the formulation - use strong flour for gluten formation
chewiness
27
- when sugar melts, the cookies spread wider. - more baking powder makes bigger cookies - creaming allow the cookies to expand - low temperature increases spreadability - high liquid cookies spread faster - weak flour spread more because of low gluten formation - heavily greased pan make cookies spread even more
spreadability
28
it makes bigger cookies
baking powder
29
it allows the cookies to expand
creaming
