Cold butter makes the dough too stiff to mix, so you end up overworking it, which is basically the same problem. The move is cutting it into small cubes and letting it sit for 15 minutes, way faster than a whole stick. Or grate it on a box grater and it softens in like 5 minutes. And honestly if you're in a rush, just beat the sugar and melted butter longer to get some air back in.

My buddy Marcus got chewed out at a gas station in Macon last month for holding the door from too far back. Woman told him she wasn't a charity case. But then his mom yelled at him for not holding one the next week, so there's no winning.

Disagree, took me way longer than half an hour to notice mine.
