[@peachnecctar1658]

Baker here! I think your cookies are coming out too dry because you are packing the flour in. The most accurate way to get the right amount of flour is to use the spoon for spoon method. Heres how to! : Use a spoon to lightly scoop flour into a measuring cup, preventing packing, and then level off the top with a knife to ensure accurate measurement, rather than directly scooping with the measuring cup itself; this is especially important when measuring flour to avoid dense baked goods. Also for the butter, the cube method is a good idea and just place it in a warm area of the house if possible, you'll know the butter is ready when you can touch it with your finger and it lightly presses in but isnt so soft that it just goes all the way through. Hope this helps! :)

[@braylee10]

yes!!! so glad a real baker is in the comments, cause she’s got me wanting to jump through the screen😭😂😭😂

[@rachaellaine91]

Came here to say the same thing ❤❤

[@fattymcchugchug]

Yeah she's packing it like it's brown sugar. Honestly, I think measuring by weight is the most reliable method. Getting a kitchen scale was such a game changer for me

[@peachnecctar1658]

@ yeah definitely! That was gonna be my one other recommendation but then I realized not a lot of recipes always do it by weight but it really is so much easier and foul proof! :p

[@melissaneal3808]

JEREMY! Get the girl a kitchenAid Mixer for Christmas if you want more baking in the new year. 😂💖

[@alexandria9286]

I’m in the market for one currently and there are a ton of second hand options that people have barely used and are half the price of a new mixer!

[@martinaschlagl3882]

I love how comfortable husband Jeremy is around the camera! He genuinely seems so happy these days ❤

[@eyesofivy]

Yeah as soon as I saw the melted butter I knew we were in for a weird time

[@laurDIYvlogs]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAH

[@braylee10]

same same😂😂😂

[@braylee10]

the crumble topping last time was killing me😂😂😂

[@brittanieallyson8230]

Lauren cooking or baking in the kitchen gives me Zack energy when on try guys without a recipe vids but she has the recipe😂 but in the end tho Lauren definitely gives evil Eugene vibes too with doing all these crazy steps and at the end come out tasting good😂

[@makenzirutherford3620]

Butter hack: fill a cup with hot water to warm cup. Empty cup and set cup over stick of butter. It will quickly soften butter without melting

[@dumplingdemi]

Jeremy needs to make his own Christmas album with his own renditions 😂

[@callyl5611]

I think next week's vlog should be "Cooking with Jeremy" for new years. I enjoy the baking vlogs.

[@alexandriana3348]

Lauren becoming a cooking influencer during vlogmas was not on my 2024 bingo card 😂🫶🏻

[@Diaz09099]

🖤fyi if you can accidently melt your butter but the recipe calls for softened, you can just pop it in the fridge/freezer for a bit til it resolidifies. Butter temp actually makes a huge difference when baking :)

[@LifeofChants]

Thank you, Jeremy, for blessing us with your magical voice ✨️

[@melissamcleay9818]

Thank you Jeremy for the song about diggy and moose. So here for it

[@bakingmyselfproud]

Since you have marshmallows on hand, try adding one to your brown sugar! It helps to keep it soft 😊

[@Tjmama23]

Yes I keep 2 in mine at all times!

[@astridt_]

Another baking vlog?? What a perfect way to end my weekend 😂❤❤ happy holidays! Much love from France ✨️

[@kyleebeeton8109]

You have the best vlogmas song of all ❤ it gets stuck in my head lol

[@BGCSims94]

jeremy seems so involved this vlogmas and i love it. your relationship truly is adorable and i wish i was your friend 😭

[@daydreamers2260]

Love watching you two just exist in the kitchen together ❤️ also love Jeremy’s singing 👀

[@stephanieanderson2263]

I love the vlogmas content and I also love the baking vlogs as well. I loved the start to the video and got to love the humor ❤ I can see Lauren doing a lot of Christmas baking neat year's vlogmas 😂

[@rileyhiggins2138]

The way I got the Mac and cheese bites and hot honey pep pizza at top golf last time I went 😂😂 glad to see Lauren has great taste!

[@laurDIYvlogs]

SO FIRE

[@zgyenes14]

the brown sugar issues continue 😭

[@KaylaSiefferman]

Please girl get a container for it and use a terracotta disc I BEG

[@shadowfaewolf16]

the stand mixer is made by kitchen aid-I have a bright red one but they come in multiple colors with various attachements and pretty covers when you're not using it

[@Sunshine-uo7um]

I have a kitchen aid red addiction 😂❤

[@lgarza9640]

Also for storing flour and sugar make sure it’s kept in air tight containers. You do this to avoid clumping or bugs getting into it.

[@jasmynasuro]

baker here!! love the vlogs! a good baking tip is to check it at least a few mins (2-3 mins, for most cookies) before the recommended recipe bake time. so if it’s 10-12mins, i would typically check at the 8min mark as it depends on how powerful your oven is. hope that helps & merry christmas!❤️

[@balesnicolenb]

I laughed so hard at " do you want a cookie or not? now f off" will be using this to my husband now. Thank you!

[@akittylover]

Loving the baking vlogs! happy holidays to everyone!

[@natd6789]

As much as it pains me to agree with the peanut gallery: as a fellow person who gets stressed while cooking/baking, it is literally not worth the effort to bake cookies unless I make MINIMUM 12-24 cookies at a time lol

[@gemman8036]

idk what the prices are like in America, but here you can get stand mixers for $75. Obviously it's not going to last as long as a KitchenAid, but if you're not planning on baking a lot, I think it would still be good to have. You don't immediately have to buy the $600-$800 mixer.

[@essencedobson]

You can also add a piece of bread to the brown sugar bag and it will soften the sugar back to the way it was when first purchased.

[@lauriechow9397]

couples who don't like cooking together stays together LOL

[@JCamcrew]

Please give us Jeremy singing for Christmas lol

[@juliannaengler4259]

I didn't know we needed Jeremys singing until todays vlog

[@emmabc01]

I am loving all the baking and cooking vlogs

[@Elisa_1214]

Laurennnnn can you please link your blue set 🥲 It looks so comfy 💙

[@jenbyers3840]

I love your matching set. I hope you'll tell us where it's from. Loving vlogmas!

[@sarahlandry7156]

In the caption she says where it's from! Edikted

[@JanninaLim]

You can put a piece of bread in the brown sugar it’ll soak up the moisture.

[@musicgeek4877]

Please, please, I beg for a Lauren + Jeremy cooking competition. Get that man in the kitchen

[@wondernessful]

Love Lauren in the kitchen!!! We need more of this

[@foodandfoilsm8176]

Brown sugar bear! 🐻 you can put it in the bag or container you keep your brown sugar in and it keeps it soft! ❤ Happy Holidays! 🎄❄️❤️

[@ann2212]

Brown sugar hack: stick a wet paper towel in the ziploc bag w the brown sugar and it’ll soften right up! Just make sure to take the paper towel out once the brown sugar is soft so it doesn’t mold over time

[@goodygoodygumdrop4]

We have a rare treat Jeremy singing best Vlogmas ever!!

[@edenlee5869]

ok jeremy i see you with the harmony on we wish you a merry christmas

[@HaleyYoung-o5s]

Brown sugar hack is to add a marshmallow in the bag when it's hard. It helps it soften back up!

[@haleyr9200]

hi! to fix your brick of brown sugar lol. place whatever amount you think you need on a plate or bowl with a damp paper towel then microwave it. this helps to add some of the moisture back (i think). this trick has always worked for me. i hope it helps :) pls keep making baking content, it's highly entertaining

[@myadoua06]

My brown sugar hack is putting it in a mason jar. If you keep in a ziplock or original packaging it stays hard. You are killing it in the kitchen. 😍💯

[@melaniejaneprocter5529]

My baby Tina is so gentle that she takes her dog chocolate drops so softly. Cookies looked amazing, Lauren ❤❤❤❤XXXX

[@alexisdaponte9534]

A slice of bread in the outer bag you have the brown sugar in method! Moisture makes the bread hard (even a marshmallow I saw in other comments!) when you close the bag, it takes the humidity instead of the brown sugar leaving it soft! also hack for Jeremy, if you get Lauren a stand mix you might get more cookies cause it makes life SO much easier, I wasn't a baker until I got one ahah

[@devansikayastha9750]

loving your baking vlogs💗💗

[@delkermichelle]

I learned that if you put two pieces of bread into the brown sugar and seal it, the bread will soak up the moisture and resoften the brown sugar. 🫶

[@victorialopez8829]

You had to put a wet ringed out napkin over the brown sugar so the steam could soften up the brown sugar ! Just learned that while baking cookies a couple weeks ago comes in clutch

[@braylee10]

to soften butter by microwaving, turn the power level down to like 30-40%(low) and do it in 5 second increments :)

[@stephdurkee]

i loveee jeremy joined u in this 😂😂😂

[@melissablais6030]

You're thinking of the kitchenaid mixers. In Jeremy's favour though, a friend of mine has a red cuisinart mixer and she really likes it 😊

[@kdeydominique0827]

I love Lauren's dad he is so goofy 😂

[@aalyahmarquez4616]

What I find helps to soften the brown sugar is put a wet paper towel on the sugar and then microwave it

[@carlyburkhart7066]

Watch Jeramy get Lauren a kitchenaid for Christmas to keep her baking lol 😂

[@supershek96]

my mom always put a piece of bread inside a glass container with brown sugar on top or bottom of brown sugar, idk in between. but try for a day or whenever.

[@elizabeththompson1525]

You need to put a piece of bread in with the brown sugar to make it soft and keep it soft!

[@migueljose3136]

I love your all blue outfit! It's giving Fantastic Four vibes!💙

[@eringrady4786]

You need an airtight container for your brown sugar and a brown sugar bear! Total game changers

[@jsbh2006]

They have these terracotta discs that you soak in water and then put it in your brown sugar and it keeps it nice and soft

[@vibharamesh3337]

ok listen a glass of wine + baking?? Sounds like my perf evening 🥰 been LOVING the vlogmas content this year!!

[@mightywwfell]

Cooking with Lauren best volgmas ever. I follow a young girl did not know how to cook know she cook easy recipes.

[@fluffyteddystina]

When you store your brown sugar put a slice of bread in the container or bag and it'll soften your sugar and keep moisture out!

[@Nightbear-875]

I love Baking With Lauren 🩷😭🩷

[@bloobsibloob2384]

vegan recipes often replace butter with vegetable/rapeseed oil, so if you need more butter or your cookies are dry you could try adding that next time

[@makaylahday1375]

I just want to say I love you and your videos I took a break from YT for a while but I love watching your videos❤

[@CaitlynLorraine1013]

Lauren!! You need to get yourself a brownsugar saver bear!! It will make it so your brown sugar doesnt harden!

[@braylee10]

lauren PLEASE😂😂😂😂😂 please learn more about baking if you continue i genuinely cannot deal😂😭 brown sugar is always like that, there are certain brown sugar container you can get that help it stay less clumpy, but even brand new it’s clumpy asf. if you put the brown sugar through a sifter then the clumps will disappear

[@madisonscott7474]

Hibestly one of my favorite videos you have ever posted 😊😂 you and Jeremy are just 🥹🥹 so funny so wholesome I LOVE IT MERRY CHRISTMAS ❤

[@_rnonica]

I replayed Jeremy’s singing just so I could sing the melody with his harmony lol

[@taylorking5989]

Put a piece of bread in the bag you hold your brown sugar it makes it more soft

[@kindrajayne3734]

Those cookies look delicious. 😋

[@jackievb100]

Brown sugar can be softened when microwaved in short bursts

[@Sunshine-uo7um]

Lole the baking/ cooking content please dont stop❤

[@lgarza9640]

Keep your brown sugar in an air tight container with a few marshmallows! IDK why but marshmallows help store for longer!

[@ashleelarry4515]

If you add a piece of bread to the bag of brown sugar it’ll soften it so fast

[@christinapark907]

It’s not too dry you just need stop mixing with the spoon and get in there with your hands to put it into a ball! Essentially kneed it with your hands!

[@ashlomms]

“DO YOU WANT A COOKIE OR NOT!?” 😂😂😂

[@artchaser4611]

Life hack: Add a piece of bread in your brown sugar pack and it will soften it over night! (The sugar will absorb moisture from the bread)

[@michelleh6768]

Jeremy should get Laur a kitchen aid mixer then she’ll be forced to bake all the time 😂

[@corcey3305]

if u put a small piece of bread in ur sugar it should absorb any moisture and make it soft

[@glorimelisa]

When you go to a recipe page, click jump to recipe then press print recipe then it’ll just show the recipe on a blank printer friendly page on the Internet tab on your phone

[@HeatherDille]

Pour the brown sugar out of that package and just into your ziplock and add a slice of white bread to it and just leave it in there. Also the butter could have been cold but as long as you can press your finger into it it’s fine. Melted butter vs softened butter causes a different texture to your cookie. Might want to invest in a brown sugar keeper with a brown sugar bear 🐻 to keep it soft. Happy Baking!

[@bloobsibloob2384]

need to know where you got that blue sweater hoodie it's SO cute

[@eimanaser1048]

Wow Jeremy finally singing WOOO

[@Kristirella]

I usually add an extra egg white if my cookies are crumbly like that.

[@summer1359]

Loving vlogmas this year! Ty for posting Lauren :) can’t wait to see how’s your baking went this time 😅

[@complimentsofanna]

Just a tip from a very amateur baker, most microwaves have soften/melt settings to help soften butter in a pinch.

[@veronicatattoos]

I like to store my brown sugar in a glass jar with the heel bread slice and it keeps the moisture out of the sugar really weelllll 😇😇

[@courtneyahart1944]

Put a piece of bread with the brown sugar to prevent the moisture from hardening it

[@annamccluskey5345]

The cooking portion was giving Without a Recipe

[@theaire]

if you need another reason to get a stand mixer other than baking I've used mine to shread meat for pulled pork or chicken plus with attachments it can be multi use

[@vickijohnson7581]

Brown sugar. Put a slice of bread in your brown sugar bag for a few hours. The brown sugar obsorbs the moisture and gets soft.

[@lulumchugh3908]

Put a damp paper towel over brown sugar while in micro... it'll help add moisture back into it!

[@lulumchugh3908]

They also have "brown sugar bears" that's made of, I believe, clay. You add that to your bag of brown sugar and will keep it soft. Hope these help!

[@shelby060]

The milk and wine is my husband too 😂😂😂

[@krob1n]

TSJ: if you ever get her a KitchenAid Stand Mixer, get one with the metal lift. Fliptop ones stink and she needs the room to be herself. ❤

[@nartanin]

You’re a very put together individual

[@danecee]

If you dump your brown sugar into a container and put a slice of bread (+ wait a few hrs or overnight), it should soften it too!

[@Kaylamity_slays]

Lmao I was hella scared of how this would turn out when that milk came out. I added milk to my cookies once because I too was thinking this shit is mighty dry… turned my cookies into cake! 😂 Using a flour sifter helps as well as a whisk to break down the dry ingredients! Also probably should have just popped that butter back in the fridge for a minute 😅
