Hi loves! How is it going? It seems like the entire nation is on baking mode. All-purpose flour and yeast are worth like a gold these days. Just couple of weeks ago I went to the grocery store to restock my APF and cocoa powder. Unfortunately after making trips to different grocery stores. I didn't find any. I was bummed because I might need to wait for two weeks and I couldn't wait for another week. I had so many recipes I want to try. Thankfully, Walmart has some stock online. I don't know what I'd do if I don't stock up on my baking staples during the lockdown. I'd probably go nuts.
Ever since I started baking, my first on the list to perfect was chocolate chip cookies. It's one of the easiest recipes to make and ingredients are not hard to find, right? But who would ever thought that making cookies can be very veryyy tricky. I tried baking chocolate chip cookies for countless times and I never seem to get it until today. I was already on the verge of giving up because after practicing, reading and researching I still didn't get it. But today I finally made progress on my cookies. One thing I tried doing differently this time is instead of creaming butter and sugar together. I used brown butter and a good quality chocolate chips. It made a huge difference on the flavor.
For the taste, I love the hint of molasses and the bitterness from the chocolate chips. The texture might need a little more work though but I'm quite satisfied on how it turned out. This is an 8/10 ;-)
I can't wait to pass this down to my future children.
Maybe next time I should weigh my cookies so the cookies will cook at the same time. Do you guys have any advice on how I can improve the texture? Because I had this problem before, the day after I bake my cookies, it tends to harden like a rock! Seriously. I was thinking could it be because I over mix my batter? Or is it the cooking time since the sizes are different. Please if you have any advice. Comment them down below. I'd highly appreciate it.
