    What makes the best chocolate chip cookies? In Claire’s opinion, it’s a chewy edge, soft and chewy center, puddles of chocolate (in this case, dark and milk), a healthy amount of salt, and, crucially, lots of butterscotch-y flavor from the interplay of vanilla, brown sugar, and brown butter. That might sound like a lot, but it all comes together easily in a couple of bowls, no stand mixer required. The hardest part is definitely waiting for the dough to chill in the fridge before baking.

    I have a friend who now eats a chocolate chip cookie with his morning coffee as a way to celebrate he’s alive. He experienced a lot of loss with covid and it was an anxiety mechanism to cope with feeling blessed to be alive. A small, fresh baked cookie is his way to count his blessings. As we know cookies have been used as a reward, his technique helped him enjoy his favorite treat while feeling blessed to enjoy life. I’m going to share this recipe to add to his list of recipes!

    Dear Claire, I’m 70 and I have a little neighbor and her cousin who visit me and I give them treats. Today, I made these cookies. That little girl (8) fell to the ground on her back with her eyes rolling back and said, “These are the BEST cookies I’ve ever had In! My! Life!
    I’m 70 and felt the same way. Her cousin, who is usually very chatty and in need of much attention, was silent and suddenly said, “Yeah.”
    I thank you for this precious moment. This recipe is AMAZING. Browned butter fo’ LIFE.

The biggest difference is that I want to know the kinds of foods that Claire is passionate about, the things she wants to improve or make her own, and the things she has strong memories of but for which she doesn't have a recipe, and how she'd go about adapting those foods and creating new recipes for them in her next cookbook.

      I am replying very late but I really hope you are kicking that EDs ass.
      In a way I understand what you mean; I have a chronic illness (which as a side effect means I can’t get fast food, microwave meals and instant meals because of additives in them my body doesn’t tolerate) and found that it’s actually easier to get myself to eat when I cook and bake in a way it becomes a ritual and also (particularly since I’ve started investing in good ingredients and growing my own herbs) it feels like I’m spoiling/doting on/taking care of myself instead of trudging through an exhausting chore. The best part is when I finish I have a yummy reward for my efforts; I’m slowly becoming an enviable cook haha.
      Best of luck on your food journey hope the ED is better now!

  • @juliakbrown
    @juliakbrown 2 года назад +50

    These are yummy. A couple of notes for folks trying these out: (1) If you are used to using the recipe on the back of the Tollhouse chip bag, these are a lot darker in color (due to the browned butter and the dark brown sugar). So don't be fooled into taking them out of the oven too early, or you will have mush. (2) This is probably obvious, but if you're baking them from frozen, rather than just refrigerated, you will need to either bake them longer than the time given in the video, or allow them to come to fridge temp before baking them.
