Guide to crafting homemade crunchy chocolate chip cookies:
Ingredients:
Main Components:
- Low gluten flour: 100g
- Butter: 60g
- Brown sugar: 30g
- Granulated sugar: 20g
- Egg: 25g
- Chocolate chips: 50g
Additional Ingredients:
- Baking soda: 1/8 tsp
- Salt: 1/4 tsp
- Vanilla extract: 1/4 tsp
- Cocoa powder: 5 grams
Cooking Steps:
1. Begin by cutting the butter into small pieces and letting it soften at room temperature.
2. Combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar, and salt, then whip the mixture.
3. Incorporate the vanilla extract and mix thoroughly.
4. Gradually add the beaten egg mixture in small portions.
5. Sift and mix the low-gluten flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda. Blend this mixture into the whipped butter.
6. Ensure thorough mixing with a rubber spatula, creating a uniform cookie batter. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
7. Using disposable gloves or a spoon, take a small amount of batter and roll it into balls. Arrange them on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Flatten the balls with your hands.
8. Decorate the cookie surfaces with additional chocolate chips. Preheat the oven to 170 degrees Celsius and bake for approximately 12 minutes.
Helpful Tips:
1. Avoid overbaking the cookies to maintain their soft characteristics. After baking, allow the cookies to cool and then store them in a container with an airtight seal.
2. Due to the addition of cocoa powder, it may be challenging to determine doneness solely based on color. Instead, rely on the aromatic scent, usually noticeable after two to three minutes of baking, as an indicator to remove them from the oven.
These cookies can be stored in a sealed container at room temperature for a few days. To maintain their ultimate crispiness, you can enhance their storage by placing a packet of silica gel inside the container to absorb any excess moisture.
Indulge in the delightful contrast of textures in these thin and crispy chocolate chip cookies, where every bite promises a burst of chocolatey goodness and a hint of tangy softness.
Crafting these treats at home is a simple process, allowing you to savor their irresistible charm anytime you desire.
