I'm on a mission. I'm on a mission to find the perfect chocolate chip cookie recipe. Of course, the "perfect chocolate chip cookie" is a matter of opinion for everyone. For me, the perfect cookie is thick and chewy. If I can be really picking, it will be slightly crispy on the outside. I did some research and came across
this site. I thought the science behind the article was pretty interesting, but the recipe they have associated with "thick and chewy" did not, in fact, yield a thick cookie. It did yield some of the thinnest cookies I have ever seen. Tasty, for sure, but so thin, some of them dropped through the cracks of the cooling rack.
Thin.
After rereading that article, perhaps I need to add more flour to bind with the water, which will prevent the cookie from spreading out so much.
In the meantime, I'm on the hunt for a new recipe to try again next weekend. If any of you have a recipe that fits my description of "perfect", send it my way. I will try each and every recipe I get. My kids will never eat dinner again because they will be filled with cookies. Austin might even gain some weight.
