My lifelong pursuit for the perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe




Here is my latest attempt at making the perfect chocolate chip cookies. So far I have been unable to think of what would make them better, so that must mean I am pretty close. This is v 4.1

What makes a perfect chocolate chip cookie, you ask?
*No animal ingredients. How can you enjoy a delicious cookie knowing you are contributing to the suffering of animals and environmental destruction?
*Not too big, not too small. I want to be able to eat more than one.
*Melty and gooey out of the oven, soft and chewy the next day.
*The perfect ratio of chocolate chips.
*Simply delicious, don't ruin my chocolate chip cookie by putting cinnamon or something in it! I only want to taste chocolate, vanilla, and butter! Ok... and maybe coconut.
*Round and cute.
*Not too oily, dry, flat, or tall.

What do you think makes the perfect chocolate chip cookie? What am I missing?

  1. I think you pretty much nailed it. Maybe i'm a little strange, but i also like just a *hint* of detectable salt in my chocolate chip (and peanut butter!) cookies. That little bit of salt makes the sweet so much sweeter!

  2. Thanks Dani! You are totally right. Enough salt that it doesn't quite make you think "wow, salt" but just makes you go "mmmmmm"

  3. Uncle Steve likes just a little crispy crunch on the edges!
