How to Make Your Biscuits & Cookies Yummier at Home
The use of a microwave is not limited to cooking daily meals for your family. You should also try making some unique yet awesome dishes in the microwave. I am always excited to do experiments with my microwave oven and I do it in the safest possible way.
I think biscuits and cookies have become a part of our life for years. Every child loves some specific or other brand biscuits or cookies but I have microwaved some of them to know what happens. Here I will share my experience of microwaving Pillsbury, belVita, Oreo and other biscuits & cookies.
#1. Pillsbury Biscuits:
The Pillsbury Biscuits are one of my favorite and my kids also love them. My kids love eating Pillsbury with cream and jam. So, I microwaved these biscuits with mayonnaise to make them warm & creamy and then add jam at the time of serving to my kids.
If you want to microwave 4 Pillsbury biscuits, you need to heat them up for 1 minute to 1:30 minutes only. After getting the biscuits out of microwave, you can add jam or cherries or other things as per your taste preference.
You should not microwave Pillsbury biscuits for longer as it can burn them. Don’t wait for the biscuits to get brown as the Pillsbury won’t become brown in the microwave. So, you should focus on taste more than the color.
#2. belVita Biscuits:
The belVita biscuits are available in many different flavors. Out of all, blueberry is my favorite, while my daughter likes belVita sandwich biscuits. These biscuits are safe to microwave but not for a longer duration.
You can put belVita biscuits in the microwave for 30 seconds. If you have a low wattage microwave such as 700W then microwave the biscuits for 45 seconds to 1 minute to make them softer and warm.
You can add some plain butter or peanut butter when putting belVita biscuits in the microwave. The melted butter will make them more delicious when you eat them warm.
#3. Oreo Cookies:
The Oreo Cookies are my all time favorite, I have tasted all Oreo flavors and I love them all. A few years back, I microwaved Oreos for first time but I did it carefully. The Oreo offers great taste with crispy feel, it becomes better after keeping Oreo in the microwave for just 30 seconds.
You can microwave an Oreo for 30 seconds to make it softer and warmer instantly. If you want to melt the cream between Oreo cookies, you need to microwave Oreos for 1 minute to 1:30 minutes. You should not microwave an Oreo longer than 1 minutes & 30 seconds as there are chances of burning and causing smoke.
#4. Nabisco Cookies:
Nabisco Cookies are soft and more sensitive to heat. The experts recommend not to microwave Nabisco cookies as the heat waves can burn them. So, it is good if you eat them as they are but you may want to know what will happen if you put them in the microwave.
If you want to microwave Nabisco Cookies for improved taste and feel, I suggest to do that for 8 to 10 seconds. This short period is enough for the cookies to get warm with the soft & fresh texture.
#5. Chips Ahoy! Cookies
The Chips Ahoy! Cookies are integrated with chocolate chips with different flavors. I have a special connection with Chips Ahoy! because it was my first cookie with chips that I ate years ago. So, can you microwave Chips Ahoy! or not?
You can put Chips Ahoy! cookies in the microwave but only for 35 seconds as maximum. If you microwave only 2 cookies, microwave them for 8-10 seconds otherwise you will end up burning them.
Bottom Line:
With help of my suggested tricks, you can microwave your cookies and biscuits safely. You can also add some butter, cheese, mayonnaise and chocolate to change their taste as per your choice. Just take care of timer when you microwave an Oreo and other cookies for safety purposes.
