The New York Times Chocolate Chip Cookies

Can I just tell you that I’m really enjoying National Chocolate Week?

I’ve been making all sorts of recipes for you guys, including these cookies, which are amazing.

I didn’t want to say that these are the best chocolate chip cookies because everyone has their own “best chocolate chip cookie” criteria.

But, if you love dense, chewy, crinkly chocolate chip cookies, then these are definitely the best.

I’d heard of the New York Times Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe all over the Internet and finally decided to make them myself.

They are so good…chewy and dense, but the outter edges are crunchy, and they are full of chocolate chips.

I brought them with me to give to some family and they devoured them!

If you’ve got 24 hours for chill time (leave it to me to only chill them for 12… they still turned out well, but I plan on chilling them the full 24 hours or even more next time), then please, please, please make these.

The original recipe for these can be found here: New York Times Chocolate Chip Cookies.

Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies

January 28, 2013 By

bacon chocolate chip cookies

Okay, so I gave in to the “Hey, let’s put bacon in our dessert” foodie trend.

And you know what, I’m glad I did it.  I looove sweet and salty combinations and this hits the sweet and salty spot in my stomach juuust right.

These are really good and you should make them.  And then you should give them to people.  Don’t tell them what’s in them until after they try them and tell you how delicious they are.

S’mores Chocolate Chip Cookies

September 6, 2012 By

cookies cheesecake 8-5=12 374

As the summer winds down and the weather gets cooler (HA!), fire pits start to sound a little more bearable than the did a few weeks ago.

Unfortunately, it’s still freakin’ hot here (in the 90s-100s), so I’d rather bake s’more than make them on a burning hot fire on a burning hot day.

Plus, who would pick a regular s’more over a cookie s’more?!

I used my standard chocolate chip recipe and added marshmallows and graham crackers, and this is what happened…

S’mores Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients:
1 cup (2 sticks, 8 ounces) unsalted butter, very soft
1 cup (7 1/2 ounces) packed brown sugar
3/4 cup (5 1/4 ounces) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 1/2 cups (11 5/8 ounces) All-Purpose Flour
1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
1 1/2 cups (9 ounces) chocolate chips
2 1/2 cups (5 1/4 ounces) mini marshmallows

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Place the very soft butter in a medium-large mixing bowl. Add the sugars, salt, vanilla, and stir well.
  3. Add the egg and stir until well blended.
  4. Add the baking soda and flour, mixing until blended.
  5. Stir in the chips, graham cracker crumbs, and marshmallows.
  6. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto light-colored baking sheets.
  7. Flatten into disks, using gentle pressure from your fingers.
  8. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, until the bottoms and edges are lightly browned; the tops shouldn’t brown, they should still be slightly gooey.
  9. Remove the cookies from the oven, let them rest on the pan for 5 minutes, then slide them onto a rack to cool completely.
