    Cooking Tip From the Food Network Kitchens

    Before adding eggs to your muffin, cookie or cake recipe, lightly beat them to incorporate the yolks and the whites. If you take care of this part before adding them to your other ingredients, you'll run less chance of over-mixing and thus creating gluten, which makes baked goods tough and chewy instead of moist and tender.
