Help! SOS SOS Cookie Emergency!

MaineIslandBrideMaineIslandBride
in Maine Nesties
OK it's not really an emergency. I made my cookie dough for the GTG the night before last and put it in the fridge. I just took it out and made one batch that came out horrible (very brown edges, but raw in the middle). I've never refrigerated cookie dough before. Do I need to let it warm to room temperature first? Or do I just need to chuck it and start from scratch? If that's the case, you gals might be getting store bought cookies tomorrow, haha

    O-R-E-O!

    not a baking expert, but I have chilled dough before and not had a problem.

    maybe bake at a lower temp for longer?

    It's usually ok to start with refrigerated (or even frozen) dough.  But hey, it's worth a try letting it come up to room temperature to see if that fixes the problem.

    I'm right there with you..I used my KA to make my mint oreo truffles and the filling is too soft.  I can barely roll it even after in the fridge for a bit!  :-(  They still taste yummy, just look like crap.  I like my cookies crispy - bring what you have!!!

    Jess-try putting them in the freezer if you haven't already dipped them.  I just made them and found them to be soft too, but oh so yummy!

    I made another batch last night.  My DH is a cookie monster and loves pb cups, so it was a perfect combo.

    Jess- my truffles are always soft. I put them in the fridge and make a few, put them in the fridge, make a few etc. Heat from my hands always kills them.

    Thanks! A slice of bread left in the container overnight with the cookies works wonders!  ;)
