I made these and wasn’t very impressed. The first batch i only chilled for 20 mins to i can see why it may not have worked out, but my other trays were plenty chilled and it still failed. The cookie were very flat and went from uncooked to too brown with no prefect medium.
I chilled these for the recommended time but it causes them to not spread out while baking, leaving me with chocolate chip balls rather than cookies
I tried these, very easy. I chilled the mixture in the bowl for 40 minutes before forming into balls. They spread out fine and were extremely tasty and I got lots of compliments.
The amount of flour doesn’t make sense. 1 1/2 of what? Cups? 190 grams equals to 3/4 of a cup. Please clarify.
I agree, I saw the recipe and thought of it as a cheap knock-off…Don’t try this, literally makes absolutely no sense…
just use the youtube video

its way better
It depend upon your cup size
There is so many measuring cups available in the market in different sizes that’s why they have mentioned the quantity in grams also so that u can put flour in your cookie in right amount. Hope no one will feel offensive.
I didn’t chill them as I had no space in my fridge. Just rolled them into balls and baked. Turned out great! To answer Laura’s question, I used cups as I read it that way 🙂 will be saving the recipe, had perfect round cookies!!! wish i could post a pic here.
Best Cookies Ever!!👍♥️❤️
Je pensais que les biscuits étaient extrêmement bons. Pas le meilleur, mais bon. 🙂
Well, I’m only 12 and thought that for a young kid that the instructions were easy to follow, and if yo Lu don’t slack off and watch the cookies in the oven, you take them out a little bit early, like a minute, then they continue baking on the hot tray. Also if you flatten out the cookie dough before it goes into the oven, not to much, the it creates a better cookie. Overall, me and my dad had fun making it, and that’s all the counts.
Best cookies ever!
Came out perfectly, followed instructions to a tee and can’t fault. In regards to cup vs grams, I followed grams.
Came out salty.
Absolutely the best chocolate chip cookies I’ve ever made from scratch! Me and my teenage addeda little sea salt to the top of our cookies! So yummy!!!!
Uhmm whats the equipment you use??
I really found this pretty easy and helpful.
Thanks for sharing
Made some for my first time baking, it was really easy and my parents and friends really liked them. It’s a very basic recipe and you can even modify it to improve it by just adding new things to the recipe. 10/10 would recommend for something quick and easy!
Great recipe loved your YouTube video. I only measured 1 cup of flower and then added a little bit at a time for the right creamy texture. Also after blending the butter sugar, I blended in the salt and baking soda at the same time I added the egg and vanilla. Turned out awesome. First time my butter was halfway melted. I’m chilling my second batch now with only softened butter I left out over night at 78 fahrenheit. Doing this took a tad bit less flour for the same texture. Looks good again so
After trying other recipes, i can promise you, these chocolate chip cookies are the best I’ve ever tried.
These cookies are delicious! I got multiple compliments and people asking me if I can make more. Even without some of the proper measurements, it still tastes great!
