What happens to cookies when you don't add baking soda?!
I made chocolate chip cookie batter, but I don't have baking soda (only baking powder)!. Will they taste ok!? What does baking soda do!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
Baking soda was called for in the recipe because you have brown sugar in it, don't bake them without the leavener!. Use twice as much baking powder as the recipe calls for baking soda!. In other words, if the recipe calls for 1 teaspoon of baking soda, use 2 teaspoons of baking powder!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
baking powder and baking soda cause the cookies to rise!. They will be unleavened cakes and probably really flat and crispy if you don't use the baking soda!. More like crackers than like cookies!. Use the baking powder in the same measurement to fix this problem!. Or you can go to recipezaar and find a recipe that calls for baking powder instead of the baking soda!.
Next time make sure you have enough ingredients to make the recipe properly!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
