I love cookies but American cookies are something else. Where I am from, cookies that we know are basically โbiscuitsโ and just shortbread or sugar cookies. We do have chocolate chip cookies but itโs mostly commercial products, like โahoyโ. American cookies, on the other hand, are another realm to explore. I learned about these cookies about five years ago when I started watching two broke girls and just wanted to try making cupcakes and cookies. Lately in cafes and even all around, new york cookies or even chewy cookies are making their way into the spotlight. People all around the country started to open cookie shops with typical chocolate chip cookie dough but with various flavors.
When I first started baking these cookies, it was terrible. It had a flour taste and it wasnโt evenly spread. I tried the recipe from a cooking blog but that was just a disaster. Fast forward, I baked this cookie again, from scratch. I found the recipe from a youtube channel of preppy kitchen (classic chocolate chip cookies) with some modification that I made due to ingredients inavailability.
Chocolate chip cookies are basic but sometimes we donโt do them well enough. I think even today when I baked these cookies, there were some missed steps and even a wrong temperature of my oven and the butter. So, keep in mind when making chocolate chip cookies, you have to make sure everything is just right.
From that youtube channel, I learned that he was even chilling his dough. When I tried baking with slightly chilled dough, the cookie wasnโt properly spread. Later I learned, my oven temperature was too high and I need to set the dough to room temperature even after chilling it.
Salt is really optional but it certainly adds a savory sweet taste into your cookies. Temperature when baking the cookie is also important. You do not want to burn the cookie. So I tried 180C for 20-25 minutes with a traditional oven. If you have a normal electrical oven thatโs going to take 15-20 without you having to look at it often.
The steps are basically separating dry and wet ingredients. Start with mixing room temperature butter with brown sugar(this time I was using liquid brown sugar) and white sugar until it is softened and light colored. Add 1 large egg or 2 small eggs then mix it with a mixer.
In a separate bowl, mix flour with baking soda, with vanilla extract and salt to your taste. Then, after the wet ingredients are properly mixed, add the dry ingredients and then prepare your oven. Make sure itโs 180C and preheated. You can use ice cream scoops like I did but you can also use your hands to transfer the dough into the baking sheet.
After 20-25 minutes inside the oven, your cookies are done. Mine has a chocolatey brownie soft cakey texture.In this recipe, My mistake was that my butter was slightly too cold and I didnโt weigh my flour because apparently I added just a few ounces too much from its original recipe. But everyone at home loved it despite the non-visually pleasing shape. I honestly can bake more of these cookies and with more fillings and even other textures since I watched and read, there are many textures and consistencies to try. Just like I said, American chocolate chip cookies are a whole realm to explore.
