What do you consider to be perfect chocolate chip cookies? Thin and crispy or soft and chewy? This kitchen test shows how to master your perfect cookie recipe.
I don’t know about you, but cookies are kind of a mystery to me. I can bake a cake, but I have no concept of what makes cookies turn out the way they do. And I think that the best cookies are the ones that you, personally, love. If you prefer flat and crunchy, then that calls for one recipe. Fluffy and chewy with a touch of butterscotch flavor calls for a different recipe. Ultimately, the cookies are all up to you.
That’s why we are so grateful for this baking test done by Handle the Heat. She establishes a control recipe and then varies several of the ingredients to see what kinds of results each batch produces. Thanks to her tests, I finally feel like I have a little better grasp on the science behind the cookie. Judging from her results, I think I might be a “both” kind of girl, but let’s not kid ourselves. At the end of the day, any cookie will do me just fine. What’s your favorite?
