Chocolate Chip Cookies - the verdict

Cutting the flour by half in the Nestle's recipe gives a very moist, chewy chocolate chip cookie. I otherwise followed the package's recipe to a "T." Next time ( and there will be a next time) I am going to try to bake the cookies at a lower temperature for a longer period of time. The Nestle's recipe recommends 375º for 9 to 11 minutes. My cookies were too brown for my taste. Next time I will try backing them at 325º and see if I can end up with a lighter colored cookie.

In case you were wondering, cooking them at 375º for a shorter time period left them raw in the middle.

Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie - revisited

Last fall I wrote about my discovery of the perfect chocolate chip cookie recipe. I now have another nominee for this title, which I tasted at a picnic this past weekend: Nestle's Original Toll House Cookie recipe with the amount of flour cut in half!

The proportions of these two recipes are different enough that I believe they are different recipes.

I'm getting ready to whip-up my first batch of these cookies. I'll let you know if they are as delicious as those I tasted this weekend, and my original October posting. I'm not writing the recipe in this post, it is printed on the back of every Nestle's semi-sweet morsel.

Stay tuned!
