There are loads of websites and videos about common baking tips and mistakes, including a KZfaq video I've done which I'll link below. But today I want to talk about some more uncommon baking tips that I feel aren't talked about enough - yet they can have drastic impacts on your baking! :)

Adding 1 teaspoon of cornstarch to your cookie recipe will make softer cookies. Also using more brown sugar than white sugar, will make a chewier cookie. 🍪☺️🙏✝️ 🇺🇸

Isn't icing sugar a dry ingredient and granulated sugar a wet ingredient🤔
@vjohnson2400
@vjohnson2400 Жыл бұрын
The simplest explanation is this - sugar is considered a wet ingredient while baking as it dissolves and turns into a liquid state while baking in the oven or when receiving heat if making caramel on the hob or stove top.
@LKMNOP
@LKMNOP Жыл бұрын
​@@mickywilliams3201 If you have a sugar bowl on your counter or table that's not her medically sealed, you'll notice that it forms a bit of a crust on the top that you got to break through and it cleans to your spoon even if the spoon has not been dipped in your tea or coffee. It definitely sucks up water.

Hi MK! What would you recommend for the best base cake recipe for a rainbow cake? My daughter loves buttermilk based cakes with a really tender crumb yet I'm afraid that the batter is susceptible to over mixing and will result to the different colour layers not well defined and a tad dense/ mushy. I'm thinking of trying your vanilla cake recipe and divide the batters in 6 parts and dyed with different colours. Any tips would be great! Thank you
