Instructions: Given the background description of some cooking related query, summarize the question into a title
Input: When creaming butter or shortening with sugar, how can I tell when it's creamed enough? With the mixer as low as 3 or 4, even a few minutes of mixing seems excessive. Also, what are symptoms could I see in cookies which have had the butter under-creamed?Update: I think that I'm familiar with the standard guides of light and fluffy, but I seem to have a hard time evaluating that when I'm watching the mixer. My cookies always seem to come out too flat, and since I'm measuring flour by weight, creaming is my next suspect.What should I look for? Are there any tests that I can do; perhaps similar to the window pane test for bread development?
Output:
How can I tell when my fat is sufficiently creamed?
