Hi! I’ve tried the sugar cookie recipe twice, and its coming out more like batter than dough, if that makes sense. It’s too syrupy. What am I doing wrong? Is there something I can do to correct it? Thanks so much.
hmmmmm maybe the butter is too soft? Or maybe you just need more flour….it depends on your elevation sometimes….

Sara, the same thing happened to me! It was way too much like batter to be able to roll and cut cookies. I ended up having to add close to three more cups of flour to get the dough to come together. Haven’t tasted them yet… 😉

Ditto here! The wet ingredients are soupy and the dough is very soft and sticky. I used a cookie scoop but sad to miss traditional roll out Christmas cookies. 🙁
Was your butter cold? If it is too melty then the dough doesn’t work as well….
If they are sticky you just need to add more flour so you can roll them out.
