If you don’t mind I’d like to explain the science behiCOOKIESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. I want I want I want I want I want I want I want I want

Your cookies look perfect. I love trying new chocolate chip cookies too. These will be on my list as the next ones to make. Thanks for posting.

I saw that article, too, and have been meaning to try it. I would definitely use semi-sweet chips instead of the discs…I’ll let you know when I try them! Hope your Monday’s going well! xox

Yes! My sister emailed me this article and cookie recipe from the NY times and im dying to try it out! Sounds sooo good.

The cookies look gorgeous! I want one!!

Hm. Cake flour and bread flour…That makes little sense to me.

Refrigerating them for 24 hours makes perfect sense to me, though. Yes, the flavour develops (as it will with bread dough that you proof in the fridge) but it also gives time for the gluten to rest after mixing. I used to make a 15lb batch of cookie dough at the start of my work-week (when I was cook/baker at a retreat centre) and keep it in the fridge until I needed it. When the time came, I let it come to temperature and baked off the number of cookies required. They always had the best texture and the best flavour - even after 3 - 4 days. You can do this with muffin batter as well; just make up the batter, cover it well in a bucket (a walk-in fridge helps!), scoop & bake when needed. Taste is far richer and the texture, again, is fabulous because everything is so well-rested.

I’ll totally have to try this! It’s funny too, I posted about chocolate chip cookies and then read your post. In mine I was talking about good old standbys. It’s interesting that you like to try new ones!

I’ve got a batch sitting in my fridge right now, just waiting to become fabulous!

They look ever so good! I love Chocolate Chip Cookies so much!

Cheers,

Interesting. I will have to give that a try.

Thanks for this recipe. I will be adding it to my CCC research. Yes, I too have been researching different chocolate chip cookie recipes to find the *ultimate, favourite, all time best* as my 8 year old would say. I can’t wait to try these out.

These look great, CreamPuff! I am loath to try them, though, as so far nothing has beaten my ultimate cho chip cookie recipe! (Which also includes a rest in the fridge, if I remember rightly.)

It seems like choc chip cookies are the thing at the moment Ivonne. I’ve just made some too after seeing them on four other blogs. I too questioned whether the ones I just made with the latest recipe were the best ever as well. I decided they were the best so far.

Then I see the NY Times article, now I have to try leaving the dough and seeing what happens.

They look perfect, Ivonne. I’ll be saving the recipe!

Wow! They look so good. I know Dori Greenspan was discussing them a little while ago. I can’t wait to try them out for myself.

Yes I’ve seen these a few times around the net this week. Still look yummy though (how could they not?)
Btw, I tagged and awarded you over on my blog, so come and get it.

“For me, the more chocolate chip cookie recipes I try, the more I want to try.” I agree - it’s such a simple cookie, yet there are SO many variations out there, that I just want to keep experimenting until I truly find the “perfect” one!!

This recipe is the talk of the town! I have several favorite chocolate chip cookie recipes already, but there is always room for one more:) I started a blog!! It isn’t a full on food blog, but I try to post recipes at least a couple times a week. I am just learning right now:)

I had never really thought about having the dough refrigerated for chocolate chip cookies. I am going to try that and see if if makes a difference. Love these old time cookies. Thanks for sharing this recipe. Will definitely try them! Amy

Mmmmm… cookies.
I have heard so much about this article, I must look it up.
Please pass a cookie.

I’ve been reading about these cookies everywhere so I love this title! I’m glad you made the cookies too - all the more inspiration to make them!

I tried adapting some of the NYT tips to my own chocolate chip cookies, but the hardest part was leaving it in my fridge for so long as a cookie dough addict. I may have eaten a cookie’s worth for every hour it was in the fridge… Oops!

I’ve had my eye on this recipe as well. Will I blog about it? Hell yes.

OK, I can’t express to you how much I LOVE chocolate chip cookies…. so darn simple and so GOOD!!!! I love your blog, of course! And if you pop in to my blog, you will see I gave you the “brillante” blog award, woo! xoxox!

Your cookies certainly look perfect, so by that alone I’ll have to give the recipe a try!

I’ll keep this tip in mind when we bake choco chip cookies again
