Chewy Chocolate Cookie

searching for this recipe from internet, and give it a try. i've been making so many cookies but none of them are chewy, and i keep searching and searching ... and summarize into 3 important tips for myself: use brown sugar to produce more moist use bread flour to increase the elasticity melt the butter into liquid i can say this recipe is excellent, the texture is exactly what i want, matthew eats 4pcs immediately even he is so sick today and without appetite, but i think the cookie is just a little too sweet, although i cut the amount of sugar already, as the original recipe is from U.S. so i convert cup into gram. bread flour 306g salt 1tsp baking soda 1tsp unsalted butter 226g white sugar 50g (i skip this sugar as i think it's really too sweet) dark brown sugar 275g milk 1Tsp freshly squeezed lemon juice 1Tsp vanilla extract 1 1/2tsp egg 1 egg yolk 1 chocolate chips 304g (i add less than 100g)

  1. mix together with flour, salt and baking soda

  2. well combined with milk, lemon juice, vanilla extract and eggs

  3. melt butter into the saucepan, cook with low heat until butter is browned

  4. mix butter and sugar with electric mixer

  5. add #2 into butter mixture, well combined

  6. add half of the flour, mix well and add the rest of the flour until thoroughly combined

  7. add chocolate chips

  8. the cookie dough is still soft and buttery, cover with bowl and chill until firm (about 2 hours)

  9. preheat oven 180C, bake for 11 mins (Tsp size for each cookie)
* can only add brown sugar or skip the white sugar * chocolate chips is optional or replaced by raisin or nuts .... * next time i would use about 150g of sugar in total
