I tried these and unfortunately wasn’t happy with them. I think this recipe calls for too much flour. Most recipes call for about a cup less. I knew there was a problem already with the cookie dough–way too dry. The cookies tasted more like a biscotti than a cookie.

Also, a little tip. With this recipe, they melted 3/4 of the butter until “nutty” and then combined the remaining 1/4 in the hot butter to melt it. I believe this is because the melted butter loses its moisture, which is what you want for chewy cookies. But melting ALL the butter to a toasting point lost too much moisture.

Out of curiosity, why do you mention that the recipe assumes everyone owns a Kitchenaid mixer? I watched this episode online and all the liquid/dry mixing was done with a wisk, and the combined mixing was done with a wooden spoon. Not a machine in sight.

These were great. I scooped out some of the dough, froze it in the balls and then baked them later and they still were fantastic.

Your chocolate chip cookies look so moist and soft. I love them that way! Great job on making it without a Kitchen Aid Mixer. Bravo!

These look pretty perfect to me! I’d have to mail them off *immediately* to keep from devouring them all. Gorgeous photography, too!
