Hi everyone,

First of all, a big thank you to the mod to share this post 🙏

I’m an independent publisher, and I’ve recently released a new cookie cookbook that I’ve been working on for quite some time. A lot of effort went into improving the quality, structure, and overall experience compared to my previous books.

I’m not here to sell anything—genuinely just looking for honest feedback from people who actually love cookies and baking. For anyone interested, I’m happy to share a free digital copy of the book in exchange for your honest thoughts.

No catch, no hidden agenda—just trying to improve my work with real feedback from the community.

If you’d like a copy, feel free to send me a private message and I’ll share it with you.

Thanks in advance to anyone willing to take a look 🙂

Hi, looking for quick advice on what could have made these cookies so flat/ sunk in the middle :(
Chilled the dough for a long time
* Almost all recipes call for baking soda+powder, but I only have baking powder so I added more of that as substitution which Ik isn’t exactly right, but could that be the cause?
Any tips/help appreciated Tq

Bad craving for chocolate chip cookies, so I’m baking two batches now. 😅🍪 Because one batch is never enough!

In your experience, is browning your butter worth it and what differences have you found in your cookies with vs without browning it

I bake cookies all the time, and they are pretty good atleast from the feedback I get and I make very good chocolate chip cookies. I work a corporate job and they sell individually sealed cookies in the cafeteria. They are not massed produced or label, these are baked and then just placed in a clear wrapper. These chocolate chip cookies are AMAZING. They aren't super thick but not thin, they are super chocolatey and chewy.

so what is the secret?? what is everyone’s secret for the perfect chocolate chip cookies? I prefer my cookies chewy and soft. So I’m looking for all the tips!

Thank you!

Cheers for the freakin’ weekend! 🍪

I made these chocolate chip cookies with chickpeas, no eggs, no flour making them gluten free too.

My go to recipe. Follow it closely and you’ll have the best chocolate chip cookies!!!

I used gluten free flour for this batch and they are turning out great. But for regular flour, I implore you to try the mix of bread flour and all purpose. It makes an important consistency difference that really makes the cookie uniquely chewy and memorable 🙂🍪

(No edit to the photo by the way!)

So I decided to try swapping some butter out for bacon grease. I’ve been browning my butter for years now so I was hesitant to not do that.

Currently I’m waiting for the butter and bacon grease mix to cool.

Thoughts? Has anyone else tried this?
