Here's Why Your Cookie Dough Is So Sticky, And How To Fix It Easily - Tasting Table
Briefly

Sticky cookie dough often results from an imbalance of ingredients, typically too much moisture. Recipe developer Jerrelle Guy suggests adding flour or chilling the dough for better manageability. Additionally, incorporating dry ingredients like oats or cornstarch can help absorb excess moisture. Proper chilling not only helps firm up the dough but also enhances flavor and texture in cookies. For optimal results, careful measurement is key.
"The dough probably has too much moisture and needs more dry ingredients in the batter," said recipe developer Jerrelle Guy.
"You can chill it in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm it up, or add a tablespoon or two of flour... until it becomes manageable," she said.
