Hi! l have tried many recipes of chocolate chips cookies and they turn tough... and l have read that we can add some trimoline ( inverted sugar) and dexrose can you tell me the exact amount that l should use and what can they be substituted with?thanks in adavance

I don't think those stuff will do you any good. It's probably more the flour you use.

Beat the sugar and butter for a long time before you add the other stuff. I don’t know what those additives would do for your dough...

Thank you for your reply

What recipe are you using? There are a lot of cc cookie recipes out there that turn out well without using non-everyday ingredients. You might be over-mixing once you add the flour in and over-developing the gluten or maybe using too much sugar? Are you using both white and brown sugar?

When you say “turn tough” are you meaning that the shelf-life is short... or that they are tough after bake? What texture are you expecting - crispy or soft/moist?
