Description

Cookie dough is a basic and versatile preparation used in baking to make a wide variety of sweet or savory cookies. It is generally composed of essential ingredients such as flour, butter, sugar, and eggs, and depending on the recipe, it may include other elements like extracts, spices, or leavening agents.

Origin: Cookie dough has its roots in European tradition, especially in countries like England and France, where cookies became popular centuries ago. Over time, its use has spread throughout the world, adapting to different tastes and culinary cultures.

Properties: Cookie dough is notable for its malleable texture before baking, which allows it to be shaped as desired. Once baked, it can be crispy or soft, depending on the recipe and ingredients used. Nutritionally, it provides energy primarily in the form of carbohydrates and fats, and it may include protein and fiber if ingredients like oats or nuts are added.

Synonyms in Spanish from Latin America: In different Spanish-speaking countries, masa para galletas may also be known as masa para galletitas (Argentina, Uruguay), masa para galletas (general), or in some cases simply as masa de galletas. Although not common, in certain contexts it may be colloquially referred to as mezcla para galletas.
