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

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.

It definitely sucks up water.

On convection ovens: mine adjusts the temperature automatically. So if I set it at 425F convection, it adjusts the heat to 400F on its own. If you have a convection oven, it’s worth checking whether you need to adjust the temp or whether your oven is already doing it without you knowing.

I live in India and use a microwave that also acts as a grill and oven. It’s not fan assisted. One thing I notice while baking anything in general is that the back left corner is more brown than the other corners, so most heat is given off there. How do I stop this and evenly bake stuff?

Great information you are providing ! One issue you did not mention between brown and white sugar, which suprised me ! That is volume and weight. I live in Canada but grew up in the UK. I prefer to cook using weight for ingedients but of course here we deal with both imperial and US volumes and the demon Cup measurement. With the grain size and moisture being different for both types of sugar, how does that affect users of volume or weight measures ? And also the level of sweetness desired ?

One caveat I’d like to add when baking cupcakes in a convection oven. When I did that, the tops of the cupcakes were blown sideways by the fan. Still edible but not very pretty, lol.

Read up on creaming method, on how the sugar creates these air bubbles while being beat with butter and how the water in the butter creates steam in the air bubbles thus the cake rising during baking. Steam are also generated by liquids from the wet ingredients and carbon dioxide from leaveners, baking soda/powder. Important also to know the difference between shorteners and butters, brown sugar from granulated sugar. Even the temperature of the butter is important, must not be warm that the water from the butter separates, the milk separates losing air thus unable to create air bubbles when the sugar cuts into it during beating. So overbeating is basically melting the butter and sugar, not good. Got it all from Crafty Baking if you wanna read up. Just starting baking also so Im researching. 😁
