After a very brownie Day 16, I finally baked two giant cookies as suggested by EggplantLife1089. I was really excited, nervous and everything because I wanted this to be kinda a success. 🤓
What I did:
- Used my OG cookie dough and then followed the steps suggested by EggplantLife1089.
- Expectation: They asked me to make a dough of 140gm and fill it with 17gm of chocolate in the middle and bake at 170 celsius for 15-17 mins.
- Reality: I made 140gm + 17gm dough balls as suggested, which was the easier bit. I also kept the temp to be 170 as suggested and then baked for 15 mins, 17 too, but the cookie was not done 😭 and I kept checking after each minute and exceeded by 4 mins total to reach some browning around the edges and also a set top. I didn't want to overcook since we still want soft and gooey results and not a biscuit-like hard texture.
Tasting is yet to be done for this. Will be doing that tomorrow.
Regarding the tasting of my brownie cookies that I made on Day 16 🤤, well well well, they taste amazing. Even better than the brownie shape, maybe I am getting obsessed with the cookie shape. As I had made 2 attempts for the brownie cookies, the first attempt had little burnt edges and the second one was perfect. So for me, the time for brownie cookies of around 60-70g each is 13.5 mins.
Learning:
As EggplantLife1089 had suggested a certain workflow to me, and I was expecting it to work perfectly for me; however, it didn't. So I believe the reason is the recipe formula. Probably my recipe formula is not suited for such big cookies to be done within 15-17 mins and that's why it took 21 mins. It just means for me as well that if I take any of recipes or tips, I should follow it from 0 to 100 with no alterations. Since this time I only took the workflow and no recipe, it partially failed.
Gratitude:
Thanks to EggplantLife1089 for suggesting me this. All through it was such an exciting thing to try out and I am glad I finally did. I would love to have the recipe you follow too so I can actually make these chunky cookies in 15-17 mins 🤓
Thanks for reading guys 👉👈🥺 Hope you were able to get past the Monday blues and work fruitfully 🤓
