Not sure why the person you’re replying to is refusing to explain. Assuming they’re not a TOTAL idiot, I’d guess they’re alluding to a baking rule of thumb for mixing order. Maybe they learned this rule but they don’t actually understand it well enough to talk about it?
Generally, you include sugar with the “wet” ingredients while baking. It’s a timing thing, it tends to incorporate better and dissolve a little if you mix it with your butter, oil, milk, eggs, etc. Once that’s all mixed in you add your “dry” ingredients like flour and baking soda / powder. Those are easy to over mix so you add them last minute.
Sugar is not a liquid ingredient, it’s just a rule of thumb, the person you’re replying to is being annoying.
Thank you for the excellent explanation. It’s such a shame that some people are apparently categorically incapable of explaining themselves, and feel the need to gatekeep instead to feel superior.
This interpretation makes it clear that their comment was a complete non-sequitur, since it is NOT a liquid, and thus is not a “liquid ingredient in cookies” that might be measured in “shots”.
