I really want to make these for Christmas cookies;
Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies « The Spooky Hausfrau
However, the general consensus of my testers is that they are just too sweet when made with the mix.
I have a wonderful scratch recipe that I would like to use......my point is, just using that recipe, the batter will be too loose for cookies.
If I sub this stuff for the buttermilk in the recipe, will it work?
Dried Buttermilk Powder - 16 oz.
How much to use?
Help!!!!!

Can't give you an exact answer, just a few thoughts.
Try using the liquid buttermilk, putting in just enough liquid to give the dough the right consistency for cookie dough.
The dry buttermilk should have directions for reconstituting... use the dry measurement but again use only enough liquid(water) to give you the cookie dough consistency...
Sorry, I can't give more help than that...maybe someone else will have more experience than me...and can give you the right answer...
Good luck, hope you can figure it out and the cookies come out right.

Thats what I have been thinking, I appreciate the response, and I would like to see what anyone else has to say about it.
I used to think I was pretty experienced at baking, but this has left me rather flummoxed.

4 tablespoons for every cup of liquid buttermilk. Still you will need to adjust the moisture with water or nonfat milk. Try cutting the liquid requirements in half for a drier recipe. Might take a couple of batches to get it right.

I'm not seeing buttermilk listed in the ingredients list in your link.

Those look delicious! I wouldn't want to make them with a mix though, do you have a link for the from-scratch recipe? I didn't see the recipe on the winery link.
