Also confused...., Member jenroh1984

Followed recipe exactly, and there's NO way to make balls out of the dough as is....consistency was way too creamy to form balls. I wonder if the recipe was suposed to state ""2 cups of sifted flour""....? Anyway, I added 1/2 cup of flour to the creamy dough and was able to mke balls (still a little too creamy) Also, like others stated, this does not make 6 dozen cookies...I got about 3 1/2 dozen, so if you need 6 dozen like the recipe states you will definitely need to double ingredients.
