The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies
Yesterday we had a potluck planned with friends, and as a baker I obviously had to go with dessert. I initially planned to make two recipes, brownies and chocolate chip cookies. The brownies ended up very chocolaty and not to sweet, which I really like, as an occasional eater of 99% chocolate (🙈). However, I know not everyone is the same and some people find dark chocolate bitter. Decided to stick with chocolate chip cookies, cause they’re easy to make and everyone likes them (…riiight?). These are crunchy cookies you will absolutely love with a glass of milk or just on their own. Tip: for crunchier cookies, bake them for 5 more minutes but not more, as cookies harden up when they cool down.
