[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I confess, I am a terrible baker. I can’t for the life of me make a decent chocolate chip cookie! Like I’ve tried many, many, many times and they always suck! But then again, I would never dare to take them to a cookie exchange because I know better. [/quote] Chocolate chip cookies are actually somewhat hard to get right. You have to find the right recipe, adjust for your oven, and then be consistent with it. My DH tries out a new chocolate chip recipe every year and they are mostly quite bad. I've made the same chocolate chip cookies for 30 years and always get compliments. Baking is science.[/quote] They are surprisingly difficult! I’ve only been happy with a chocolate chip cookie cake (basically a blondie with chocolate chips) or the Cook’s Illustrated recipe where you brown the butter and stir three times. [/quote]
