Hi there, Donna! It sounds like a bit too much flour snuck its way into the mixing bowl making for a dough that was drier than expected and didn't require the full amount of flour called for. To ensure you have the proper amount of flour in the mixing bowl, we recommend either weighing your flour or using the "fluff and sprinkle" technique (shown here) for measuring in volume. We hope this can help for future baking adventures!
