I'd like to know what specific causes make what certain effects with cookie dough. I've heard all sorts of different things, I'd like to get one straight answer. Will using melted butter make them more chewy or airy? Does using a hand mixer make them airier/cakier or chewier? Some recipes call for more butter less eggs.. why why why?? What will adding more butter do to the recipe, what will adding less eggs do to the recipe?? -Confused
