NOTES : Chocolate Chip Cookies: Select your mood and bake away.
1) Classic: soft, chewy, crisp and crunchy all at once. A adaptation from Mrs. Wakefield's original recipe.
2) Thick and Chewy:soft and chewy centers, crisp edges, cracked tops, and the substantial biteful of a thick cookie. The dough contains less butter than the Classic recipe, which prevents the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
3) Thin and Chewy: if you crave a buttery, soft, chewy cookie this one is for you. They puff up in the oven, then collapse as they cool, forming an unevenly wrinkled surface. The dough contains a little extra butter and twice as much brown sugar than white, so they stay soft and chewy.
4) Crispy and Crunchy: eat this cookies in bed and you end up with crumbs in the sheets. They are more like the packaged cookies sold commercially- fairly thick, crisp, and crunchy, with small cracks across the top. Less egg, extra flour and more white sugar than brown makes them that way.
5) Dark and chewy with a deep chocolate flavor, these lumpy, bumpy cookies are filled with large pecan pieces and spotted with dark chocolate chunks. Use high quality chocolate bars broken in half-inch irregular pieces.
6) Oatmeal CCC: crisp and crunchy, these oatmeal cookies are jammed full of nuts and chocolate. For a Classic oatmeal cookie, omit the chips and substitute raisins. Or try adding chocolate cover raisins or dried cranberries.
7) Peanut Butter CCC: these cookies pack a powerful peanut butter punch, but have the texture and appearance of chocolate chip cookies; not terribly thick, with soft centers and crunchy edges. Add either milk chocolate or semisweet chocolate chunks or chips.
