Recently, many friends who have just become fond of baking have asked me a lot of questions I encounter during baking. For example, there are many substantive problems in the whole process of making bread, how to make small spots, problems encountered in making cakes, etc. While I answered them one by one, it also allowed me to relive the baking process along the way. It also added me many good friends who have common hobbies and can learn from each other.
In my personal opinion, it is better to start with a simple approach, and it should be easier and more stable. You must first understand the properties and principles of the flour and the raw materials used, and you will successfully create your work.
Take small biscuits for example. Their basic formula is very simple. They are commonly used at home. Oil, eggs, flour and sugar. As long as the ratio is right, the success rate is 100%, and there will never be a failure. The cookies in foreign snacks are made from the combination of these four main raw materials, which can be derived from a wide variety of snacks. For example, add some chocolate to it to make chocolate cookies, add some vanilla powder to make vanilla cookies, add some milk and milk powder to make creamy cookies, etc. You can also put more thought into making stuffed cookies, two-color or multi-color cookies, etc. The key part is to beat the butter and eggs so that it will taste better. And its beautiful appearance is squeezed out with a decorative bag. It can be made into a strip and round shape, and you can create it. If you like it, you can take your time to make it for your friends in the future.
If you don't have an egg beater and a decorative bag at home, you can still make it purely by hand. You only need to mix the raw materials to make several delicious snacks. In short, as long as there is an oven at home, you can make good tasting dots under any conditions.
Today, we will make a simple, easy-to-learn and 100% successful snack called "Peanut Shortcake".
