When sugar is heated, it caramelizes and browns, adding flavor and color to your final product.

What happens when you cook cookies?

Cooking cookies is a complex process that involves multiple chemical reactions. The most important reaction is between the baking soda or powder and the dough. As the dough heats up, the baking soda or powder starts to break down into carbon dioxide gas. This gas begins to build up in the dough, causing it to rise. Eventually, enough gas is produced to lift the cookie off of the baking sheet.

In addition to lifting the cookie, the carbon dioxide gas also leaves small holes in the maturing cookie. These holes make the cookie light and flaky. Without them, cookies would be dense and heavy.

So what happens when you cook cookies? The answer is: a lot! By understanding how each component of a cookie recipe interacts, you can bake perfect cookies every time.
