Giant Chocolate Chip Cookies

The post-holiday blahs have zapped my motivation to try anything new, but here’s a fairly old chocolate chip cookie you might have missed or just forgotten about.

Harry's Roadhouse Chocolate Chip Cookie

This chocolate chunk cookie was recommended by a friend who loves the desserts at Harry’s Roadhouse in Santa Fe. While Harry’s coconut cream pie is her favorite, she pointed me towards their recipe for Chocolate Chunk Cookies.

Joanne Chang’s Chocolate Chip Cookies

chocolate chip cookies

This week I posted a link to an article in The Atlantic. I guess a lot of people read The Atlantic because after I posted that one, a few people mentioned another baking article in that magazine – an article with an outstanding chocolate chip cookie recipe! I made the dough Saturday night and baked a batch Sunday morning.

This recipe is from pastry chef Joanne Chang of Flour Bakery in Boston, and in the article she tells how she came up with it. It evolved from the Toll House recipe, but Joanne Chang uses part bread flour, adds a combination of milk chocolate and the best semi-sweet chocolate available, lets the dough rest and scoops it out by quarter cups so the cookies are nice and big.

Here are a few more notes for those of you planning on making the cookies.  I  got the best results when I made the cookies with chilled dough, used chocolate that wasn’t too smooth or easy-melting, and baked the dough on [...]

Bravo put Erika’s recipe on their website and it’s written the way a normal person might scratch something down on [...]
