I just happened to have made chocolate chip cookies this Thursday, and I decided to browned butter for a change. The cookies were delicious and had a distinct crunch and a deeper flavor. I am eager to try espresso the next time I make chocolate chip cookies.

I enjoy watching you and trying your recipes!

You are also adorable!!!

Hello,

Is there a chemistry behind adding lemon/vinegar or is it purely for flavor? And, I was wondering what chocolate chips you use? They are huge!

Hi Carolina. I'm here because my friends made and served these cookies at a lovely gathering last night and I woke up thinking about the cookies. If I closed my eyes and meditated deeply enough, I could taste them again. I asked my friend if this was a family secret or was I allowed to know - she sent me this link. Thank you for bringing this masterpiece into the world and sharing it.

Could I adapt this recipe so I could use up some of my sourdough discard? I’m thinking reduce the flour by however many grams of discard im using and omit the cream?

These cookies look amazing. What would you recommend for the instant espresso powder substitute? In my country I only find instant coffee, would this work? also, can I use pure cocoa powder if I can't find dutch processed cocoa?

I made these tonight for my husband’s birthday and they were DELISH. I made them slightly smaller and just watched them in the oven. I didn’t get much of a crunch but we didn’t eat them fresh out of the oven, maybe that was it. The flavor, though, is amazing. I used vanilla bean paste instead of extract and 72% dark chocolate. Will make again!

Made this today and they turned out great! Only left it in the fridge for 2 hours and the dough was already tough enough. Thank you for also mentioning the regular measurements (grams, that made it a lot easier bc I am from Europe! Loved the recipe and definately making it more often :)
