This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

15% more flour makes it stronger, refrigerating overnight fully hydrates the flour and prevents excessive spreading of melting butter, and all brown sugar brings flavor, and I suspect the extra flour would combat its tendency to get runny.

To much flour though, and then you've got shortbread instead of a chewy cookie
