I made some cookies for the first yesterday from scratch. They were flat. Should I add more flour? More Sugar to hold it together? lol, anyway, I'd appreciate the help.

It's the weirdest thing, but I swear that it works...
If it's damp outside for any reason (snow, rain, humidity) then add an extra 1/2 cup of flour.

yeah generally flour will raise them, but don't add too much! did you add eggs? baking soda? what kind of cookie were you making? also i substitute crisco for butter...i find the cookie rises better

Try baking powder (not baking soda) - it'll make them a little more fluffy. Not too much or you'll get cake.

If you mix it for too long, they get flat in the oven. Mix it for less time.

try adding a slight pinch of yeast, whitch, using fermentation, makes the food rise.

You must have forgotten your baking soda or it was old.
