Best Chocolate Cookies
21. February 2013
These great biscuits have been tasting for a long time with my friend Brennan, who is the donor of many recipes and inspiration. This time, it's the real American cookies tested by the Americans.)) So I finally let them go and stuff them with an introduction in the original version, that is without major changes and improvisations because they are simply great as they are known. I strongly recommend the same thing, later you can experiment with different seeds, dried fruits and replacing whole wheat flour. Also originally, the recipe contained 570g of chocolate, but I agree with Brenn that 400g seems to be enough, replacing it with pecan nuts.
The recipe has one trick that is something new to me. Recipes always tell me that if I add a baking powder or soda to the dough, I should hurry in the oven without dying, but this recipe calls for a dough rest in the refrigerator for at least 24-36 hours (up to 72). This should result in an improvement in the dough structure. But if you hurry them, bake them straight, they'll be so great.) Do not beat them too long, just those 18 minutes.
Update, Brenn bakes up to 12-16 minutes, they are fragile, softer inside and I'm tested. But it depends on preferences, someone will appreciate the intense crispness of those longer roasted.)
