In baking, you typically have “dry” ingredients and “wet” ingredients.
Sugar is considered a wet ingredient in the world of baking. In chemistry parlance, it’s hygroscopic so it is mixed with other wet ingredients before adding the dry ingredients.
Gatekeeping is whack. It took me 60 seconds to give you the real answer.
Thank you. This excellent explanation also shows that SpaceNoodle’s reply has absolutely NOTHING to do with what the original commenter was talking about above (measuring cookie ingredients in “shots”), so who knows what SpaceNoodle’s smoking, but I think I’m good without whatever liquid they’re using instead of sugar in their cookie recipes.
