The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies
.
This list comes from the October 2012 O Magazine...How To Make The Most Delicious Chocolate Chip Cookie. These tips come from Alton Brown, the host of The Next Iron Chef. I don’t bake often, but the next time I make chocolate chip cookies, I’m going to give these tips a try.
1. Include dark, milk, and semisweet chocolate. Otherwise you’ll hit the same flavor notes with every bite, and your palate will get bored.
2. For a chewier cookie, try baking with bread flour instead of all-purpose flour.
3. Use room-temperature eggs. Cold eggs are hard to work into a batter.
4. Never bake the dough immediately. Instead, scoop it onto cookie sheets and refrigerate.
5. Before you bake, toss the dough in sugar, which will caramelize into a sweet-smelling, crispy crust.
