Cookies are a great snack if done well. Every minute counts when baking cookies, so you should set the cooking timer to the minimum recommended time. When the alarm clock rings, open the oven to test the firmness of the cake. You can also look at the color of the cake to make sure it’s a little darker but not burnt. When the cake is done, you can take it out of the oven, let it cool and enjoy these delicious homemade cookies.
Steps
Visual inspection
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/ab/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-1.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-1.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/ab/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-1.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-1.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
See if the edges of the cake are golden. Cookies made with light colored dough will change color as they bake. The center of the cake may still be light golden, but the edges will turn darker yellow or light brown. Remember to remove the cake before the edges turn dark brown to avoid burning the cake.

- You can test the doneness of peanut butter, oat or other cookies using this method.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/3a/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-2.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/3a/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Check the topping (cake topping) to see if it is dark. If you sprinkled brown sugar or streusel (a mixture of ingredients sprinkled on top of the cake), check to see if it has changed color. The ingredients to sprinkle the surface of the cake must have a golden color. If you leave it for too long, the topping may burn and turn dark brown.
- If the cookie recipe calls for sprinkling the topping when it’s almost done baking, you’ll have to be careful not to burn the topping. By this time the biscuits are usually cooked on the inside. [2] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/ae/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-3.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/ae/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-3.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Notice the cracks in the top of the cake. Low-wheat cookies like fudge ecstasy will crack in the center and along the edges when cooked. You can see pictures of these cakes to see how the cake will look when it’s finished baking. With these cakes, you will find them firmer and more opaque in color. [3] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/89/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-4.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/89/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-4.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Remove the cookies while they are still slightly puffy. Once cooked, the pale cookies will retain their shape, but the center may still be slightly puffy or soft. This is normal and means the cookies can continue to cook in the tray or rack once they are removed from the oven. [4] X Research Sources
- If you take the cookies out at this time, they will be softer and more pliable. If left too long, the cake will be crispy. [5] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/57/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-5.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-5.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/5/57/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-5.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-5.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Avoid relying on visible features when baking dark colored cookies. A cookie that is dark when it has started to get noticeably darker is usually overheated. To avoid this, it’s best to check for doneness by physical means rather than by visual inspection.
Physical test
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/82/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-6.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-6.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/82/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-6.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-6.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use your fingers to press on the edge of the cake. Open the oven, pull the grill out a little, and use a spatula or fingers to gently press the edge of the cake. If the edges of the cake are firm and do not sink in, it means the cake is cooked. If you leave a visible dent, the cake may need to be baked for a few more minutes in the oven. [6] X Research Source
- This is a very useful method when trying darker cookies, such as chocolate or gingerbread, where color is not the most reliable indicator of ripeness. [7] X Research Sources
- If you plan to test it with your fingers, be careful not to get burned by touching the baking tray.
- If you’re making a fragile cake like a butterscotch cookie, try pressing gently on the center of the cake instead of the edge. This way the cake is less likely to break when touched.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/53/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-7.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-7.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/5/53/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-7.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-7.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Lift the cake to check below. Open the oven and thread the metal spatula underneath a cake. Lift a little to check; If the cake is light brown or golden and the texture is hard, it’s done. [8] X Research Sources
- Be very careful when lifting the cake to inspect, as it can split in half if not handled carefully.
- This method is useful with sandies, spritzes, and other light colored cookies.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/f/fd/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-8.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-8.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/f/fd/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-8.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-8.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use a toothpick to poke the cookie stick. It is sometimes difficult to test the doneness of bar cookies because they are often thick and dark in color. Use a wooden toothpick or skewer to poke the cake. Continue to poke until about the middle of the cake, then remove the toothpick. If there are crumbs or dough on the toothpick, the cake is undercooked. [9] X Research Source
- Remember to use a toothpick or wooden skewer. Metal rods are not very suitable, simply because crumbs easily slip away.
Baking time soup
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/e3/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-9.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-9.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/e/e3/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-9.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-9.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Follow the instructions in the cake recipe. Read the recipe carefully before you start mixing or baking. You may have to place the baking tray on some griddle in the oven, even changing the temperature during baking. If you decide to change the ingredients in the recipe, be aware that the baking time or temperature may also need to be changed. [10] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/75/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-10.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-10.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/75/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-10.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-10.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use a timer and set the baking time to the minimum. After putting the cake tray in the oven, you should set the timer or set the program on the oven. This will help you monitor the doneness of the cake more closely and avoid burning. [11] X Research Source
- Make sure the alarm is now loud enough that you can hear it wherever you are in the house.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/db/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-11.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-11.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/db/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-11.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-11.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Check the cookies every minute when the baking time has elapsed. If you try the cake when the minimum time has elapsed and it is not yet cooked, you will have to monitor the cake very carefully. Look through the oven window every minute to observe the cake or open the oven door to taste the cake. [12] X Research Source
- Note that you only do this when the cake is almost done, not during the entire baking time. The temperature in the oven will fluctuate each time you open the door.
Create favorable conditions in the baking process
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/8d/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-12.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-12.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/8d/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-12.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-12.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Check the oven temperature. Buy an oven thermometer to measure if your oven is reaching the right temperature. This thermometer is quite cheap, but it can save you many batches of cakes and more from burning.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/33/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-13.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-13.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/33/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-13.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-13.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Adjust the baking time and temperature to suit the baking tray. Dark trays retain heat better, so you may need to reduce baking time. Shiny colored trays will let heat out, so you may need to add another 1-2 minutes. If the biscuits are often burnt underneath, try reducing them to about 5-6 degrees Celsius.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/71/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-14.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-14.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/71/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-14.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-14.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use a rimless baking tray for ease. The rimless baking tray makes it easier to slide the cake out after baking, and also allows you to stack more cakes on each baking tray. To prevent the tray from warping in the oven, you should choose a heavy metal tray. [13] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/a8/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-15.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-15.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/a8/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-15.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-15.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Non-stick before baking. Dip a paper towel in lard or butter and rub it into the baking tray, creating a thin layer of lubricant. You can also use nonstick spray instead of butter, or just line the tray with parchment paper. [14] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/1/15/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-16.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-16.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/1/15/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-16.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-16.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Only bake one tray at a time. Place the cake tray on the center griddle of the oven. If you bake more than one tray of cakes at a time, the oven may be too tight and alter the cooking time. However, if you still want to bake both trays at once, rotate the trays to ensure even baking. [15] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/f/f4/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-17.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-17.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/f/f4/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-17.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-17.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Leave the cake in the baking tray to cool. After taking the cookies out of the oven, you should leave the cookies in the tray for about 3-5 minutes, then use a spatula to gently scoop out the cookies and place them on the rack. The cake cooling rack should be at least 8cm above the tabletop so that moisture does not collect underneath the cakes. [16] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/a0/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-18.jpg/v4-460px-Know-when-Cookies- Are-Done-Step-18.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/a0/Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-18.jpg/ v4-728px-Know-when-Cookies-Are-Done-Step-18.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Adjust to the height. If you’re baking at a high altitude location, you may need to change the ingredients slightly and monitor the baking time more closely. First, you can try reducing the amount of butter, lard, or sugar if the cookies are too big or burn when they’re done baking. Baking time may also be subject to change. [17] X Research Source
Advice
- When placing the dough on the cake tray, you should place each spoon of dough about 5cm apart to allow room for the cake to expand when baking. [18] X Research Sources
- Remember to measure all ingredients carefully when preparing to bake.
Warning
- Wash your hands when touching raw ingredients, such as flour, to prevent foodborne illnesses.
- When opening and closing the oven door, you need to wear gloves or use silicone hand pads. Dish towels are often not thick enough to resist heat. [19] X Research Source
