Doris Greenspan Chocolate Chip Cookies - Doris Greenspan Schokoladen Chip Kekse



Hello Friends,

still looking for the best chocolate chip cookie recipe - I think I am getting pretty close  - a good friend of mine surprised me with a generous gift this year and send me Doris Greenspan Baking cookbook - I have admired her work for so long she is an amazing pastry chef!

So this recipe can be chewy or crispy - I made one tray chewy baking 10 Min not a big fan and one  13 Min very good a chewy center and crispy edges...

I added a strong vanilla extract I have to recuse that as it is a bit overpowering. I used semi-sweet chocolate chips and crunch. I will make these cookies again for sure just tweak a little - very good in texture and overall a great chocolate chip cookie

Recipe type: Cookie
Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (I use half white whole wheat flour and might use all next time)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature (if you use salted butter just use about ½ to ¾ tsp of salt
  • 1 cup of sugar
  • ⅔ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract - I added a few drops more for good measure
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups store-bought chocolate chips (She recommends 12 ounces bittersweet chocolate chopped into chips or 2 cups semisweet chocolate chunks)
  • 1 cup finely chopped walnuts (optional) or 1 cup pecans (optional) (I didn't add nuts)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees with a rack centered in the oven.
  2. Whisk together the flour, salt, and baking soda.
  3. Beat the butter at medium speed for about 1 minute, until smooth. Add the sugars and beat for another 2 minutes or so, until well-blended. Beat in the vanilla. Add the eggs one at a time, beating for 1 minute after each egg goes in. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the dry ingredients in 3 portions, mixing only until each addition is incorporated. On low speed, or by hand with a rubber spatula, mix in the chocolate and nuts.
  4. Spoon the dough by slightly rounded tablespoonfuls onto the baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between spoonfuls. I use a pampered chef medium-size melon scoop.
  5. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes and Dorie suggests rotating halfway through to get them evenly baked.
  6. Repeat with the remainder of the dough, cooling the baking sheets between batches.
