Re: [CnD] Quick Chocolate chip cookies using bisquick
Hi list friends, I have a couple of quick questions about this recipe. These may seem like basic questions, but I am a fairly basic cook and there are lots of techniques I'm still learning...I figure we all have to start somewhere. So here we go. I am very interested in making this recipe hopefully soon. But I have some questions about the directions. First, it says cream butter and sugar. What does this mean? Do I do this with a spoon or a mixer? Does it mean to just blend them both together however I want or is there a specific way to do it? Second it says beat in egg and mix in bisquick. I am assuming this means with a mixer, am I right? Or can I do it by hand? And finally it says stir in nuts and chocolate chips. Am I right in assuming I do not need a mixer for this step, just maybe either a wooden spoon or very clean hands to make sure the chips get mixed in properly? Any help anyone can give on this recipe would be much appreciated. I have not baked chocolate chip cookies from scratch in many many years and can't remember how I did it before. So any answers to these questions, or any just random good advice, would be hugely appreciated.

Re: [CnD] Quick Chocolate chip cookies using bisquick
Brittany, when you add in all the ingredients, the Bowl will be heavy and the dough will be stiff. Unless you have a lot of musciles in your hand, my guess is that you should mix the bowl on a pretty powerful mixer. From a somewhat, novice, that's my expierence with quite stiff and heavy doughs.

Re: [CnD] Quick Chocolate chip cookies using bisquick
Hello Britney I hope we can get this right I'm sure others will come along and help but anyways steps one and two you would use a mixer with the steps the first one where it says cream butter and sugar use a mixer with this and you would get the consistency and see of like a creamy texture where the sugars sort of almost dissolve at the butter step to beat in egg then add steps to word says beat in egg you would add the egg in there as well I'm sure you would like scramble it first in a bowl then you can add the egg once that is with the first step then you add the Bisquick and then you mix it with the mixer as well. Step three you can use a wooden spoon to add the nuts and the chocolate chips step three again you would mix the chocolate chips and nuts with the wooden spoon you probably could use your hands if you want but I wouldn't do it myself. So steps one and two you use a mixer with this I hope I got all this right if not again a lot of the others are so very helpful. I really love this list because they are very, very helpful with a lot of tips. I'm learning myself as well I am not much of a baker but when I had site I used to do a little bit of it. So yes it also has been a long time for me and I am not much of a cook. But being on here it is fun to listen to all the recipes, I have tried some of them and they have been very good. I hope you can get help with this so don't be shy to ask questions, dumb questions are never dumb ones because some of us are all beginners on here a lot of them are also very good cooks from what I hear on this list and they are more in and I was trying to say and some of them have been cooking for a very long time. So good luck with this recipe take care Teresa MullenSent from my iPhone On Feb 28, 2015, at 12:00 AM, Brittany Simpson via Cookinginthedark cookinginthedark@acbradio.org wrote: Hi list friends, I have a couple of quick questions about this recipe.
