Simple Basic Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

by ukcider

“My chocolate chip cookies did not turn out”, you will often hear. Inevitably it is then quickly blamed on the recipe used, and then the quest for a new recipe ensues. The odds are that the recipe used was just fine, but how the cookie ingredients were measured and mixed probably had more to do with the poor outcome.

Many recipes will confuse you. Each recipe will just produce a cookie with its own set of textural characteristics and traits. Butter: This is the fat that makes a cookie rich and palatable. The best to use to control the salt amount in your recipe is unsalted butter.

White and brown sugar: These sugars sweeten the cookie while also adding textural qualities. More brown sugar will make a soft chewy cookie while large amounts of white sugar will make a drier crispy cookie. Eggs: They are emulsifiers. They are the ones involve in keeping the fats evenly distributed throughout the cookie.

Extracts: Allow pastries a subtle underlying flavor. Vanilla and almond are the most common extracts for a chocolate chip cookie.All-Purpose flour: The most recommended for baking cookies. More flour, more dense the cookie. Self rising flour is not recommended.

Leavening agents: The two most common gas producing agents are baking powder and baking soda. In addition soda will produce a cookie that spreads.

Salt: The flavors in a cookie is enhanced by a salt. Sea salt is the best because it is a pure fine salt without additives. Chocolate Chips: Any flavor can be put into this classic cookie recipe though semi-sweet chocolate chunks were in the first ever chocolate chip cookie.

Nuts: Optional are nuts in any cookie recipe. The most classic choice are walnuts and pecans.

This is the most common set of ingredients that go into a basic recipe, no matter which way you like your chocolate chip cookie. There have been many alterations to the original recipe, since the first cookie was made in 1933.
