Part 11 of trying to find the best chocolate chip cookie recipe!!! Today we’re trying @Eric King ‘s best ever chocolate chip cookies 🍪 This cookie: - Perfect sweetness - Thinner - Crisp edges, not too crunchy - Gooey in the middle - Fairly easy to make bc it doesn’t require browning the butter and the dough doesn’t have to sit in fridge overnight Current ranking: Top 3 (no specific order): Scientifically sweet, Claire Saffitz, Easy gay oven (it was soooo good) 4. Jacque Torres 5. Well made by Kiley 6. Broma- cookies can turn out differently based on not premixing the ingredients 7. Emijuju 8. Handle the heat- too sweet 9. Joshua Weissman- weird chip + not fan of milk chocolate 10. 6th street 11. Butternut Bakery Ingredients: * 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (293 grams) * 3/4 teaspoon baking soda * 1/4 teaspoon baking powder * 1 teaspoon kosher salt * 1/2 cup granulated sugar (100 grams) * 1 cup dark brown sugar, lightly packed (190 grams) * 14 tablespoons unsalted butter(197 grams) * 1 large egg * 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract * 10.5 ounces dark or semi-sweet chocolate chopped into chunks * flakey salt optional Directions: * Gently melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Set aside to cool slightly. * In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt. * In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the brown and granulated sugars. Pour in the melted butter and stir just until combined. Whisk in the egg and vanilla until the mixture is smooth and creamy, then whisk vigorously until it lightens in color. * Using a rubber spatula, fold the flour mixture into the wet ingredients, just until a few streaks of flour remain. Dump in the chocolate and continue folding until the chunks are evenly dispersed. * Measure out about 2.5 tablespoons for each cookie, or use a 1.5-ounce cookie scoop, to form about 18 dough balls. Chill the dough balls, uncovered, in the refrigerator for 2 hours. * When the cookies are almost done chilling, preheat the oven to 350°F and place the oven racks in the top and bottom thirds of the oven. Line two half-sheet trays with parchment paper and place 6 or 7 dough balls on each. * Bake the cookies for 6 minutes, then take each tray and bang it on the racks or the top of the stove to deflate them. Switch their positions in the oven and continue baking for 4 more minutes, banging them two more times, once after two minutes, and once when you take them out of the oven. The cookies should be crisp and set on the outside, starting to get color on top, and still slightly underdone in the center * Allow the cookies to cool on their trays for 2-3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to continue cooling. Sprinkle with flakey salt, if desired. * Repeat with the remaining dough balls or store them, covered, in the fridge or freezer to bake later. https://easygayoven.com/best-ever-chocolate-chip-cookies/ #chocolatechipcookierecipe #bestchocolatechipcookie #cookietastetest #cookieseries #chocolatechipcookie - @kkearah.kkraus
