First time baking cookies, need advice, best cookie tasting product I can base off the taste on, and recipe suggestions.
Good day! It's my first time baking Chocolate Chip Cookies and I need advice on how to make chewy and chunky cookies. I used the recipe from AllRecipes. I tried it on both Anchor butter and Buttercup Premium Margarine just to see of there are differences in terms of taste. I am hoping to use the Buttercup Premium Margarine only because it is cheaper.
More information that may help:
* I baked them for 20 mins at 175 degrees celsius. Then I pre-heated the oven for 10 mins, with same temperature.
* I froze the cookies overnight. After mixing the dough, I refrigerated it for 1 hour. Then shaped into balls before freezing.
* I also baked them straight from the freezer.
* I poked some holes because I saw a tip that it creates more ridges...
* As per the taste, the cookie made with Anchor tastes like the EggNog biscuit by Nissin, And it’s more creamy and milk tasting; while the Buttercup one tastes more like pancake and a bit buttery.
* With the sizes, I used an ice cream scooper then I put two on top of each other to make a bigger cookie.
Honestly, I am not really sure what to expect because the cookies I have tasted are mainly store bought cookies. None much with home-baled and cafes. If they have recommendations about best tasting cookies I can base the taste off on, they can kindly comment it^^. Do you also have recipe suggestions? I also attached some pictures. Thank you in advance!
