I found what would become my favorite cookie recipe by following a sex blogger’s twitter? Well, this is the internet, anything can happen.
I know that food.com and the like will have many things labeled “best _____ recipe”, and many of them aren’t even good recipes but, seriously, these are lovely. I’ve been looking for a chocolate cookie recipe that holds up well during shipping, something rich but not too soft and moist, and these baked up to the perfect balance. They work well with or without nuts- though, they hold their shape better with.
The only thing I would add to this recipe is the suggestion that you bake them on paper and slide it off the tray immediately to prevent burning from aftercooking.
I’ve already made a few batches. One normal, a few tweaked & flavored- and I’m working on a gluten-free modification for my friends with celiac disease.
