Do you Cook cookies at the same temperature in a cupcake pan as normal?

It is not advisable to bake cookies in a cupcake pan at the same temperature as you would in a traditional cookie sheet. Cupcake pans are typically made of metal, which conducts heat more efficiently than the glass or ceramic baking sheets commonly used for cookies. This means that cookies baked in a cupcake pan will cook more quickly and may burn if baked at the same temperature as cookies on a baking sheet.

Additionally, the shape of a cupcake pan can affect the way cookies bake. The cups in a cupcake pan are often deeper and narrower than a traditional cookie sheet, which can cause the cookies to rise more in the center and create a domed shape. This can also lead to uneven baking and potential burning of the edges of the cookies.

To ensure the best results, it's recommended to follow the recipe instructions and bake cookies in a traditional cookie sheet at the specified temperature. If you do choose to bake cookies in a cupcake pan, it's important to adjust the baking time and temperature accordingly to prevent burning or underbaking. You may need to reduce the baking temperature by 25-50 degrees Fahrenheit and reduce the baking time by a few minutes to account for the increased heat conductivity of the metal pan.
