How to get your cookies to come out higher?

Use all or part solid vegetable shortening, chill the shaped dough well before baking, use lower protein flour such as bleached all purpose flour, or use egg with an acidic ingredient such as brown sugar, sour cream or cake flour to set it faster.

Awilda, yes, use some tips on how to make a pie or tart crust that will not shrink or have sunken sides.

Definitely, if you refrigerate your cookies for 2 hours minimum prior to baking, it will help.

Also, is your oven hot enough? If it is not, the cookies will melt first prior to cooking, thus spreading side ways.

I have been trying to make chocolate chip cookies but they always come out flat. How do make sure they come out thick?
