A cookie that's measurements are easy, but steps are attention-seeking. Browning the butter so much that you might burn it if you're not attentive. Cooling said browned butter. Thoughtful incorporation of dry and wet ingredients. Then a 24 hour wait time! Worth it and a way to trick the brain into getting a dopamine hit from patience. Look how good and patient I was! And then you are rewarded with a Very Good cookie.

My everyday recipe is by Preppy Kitchen. If I have time I like to brown the butter first. The biggest tip though is to let the cookie dough sit in the fridge overnight before baking. I know that sounds impossible but there is science behind it and the difference is huge. Here's Kenji Lopez from the Food Lab's explanation on why:
"An overnight rest allows enzymes to break down large carbohydrates, enhancing the caramelization and browning process the next day to help the cookies develop deeper flavor."
Godspeed good luck on the cookies 🫡

sally never disappoints! the keys are: using chopped chocolate, browning your butter, and letting your cookie dough chill in the fridge.
chopped chocolate creates amazing pools of melty chocolate, brown butter adds a depth of flavor, and chilling the dough keeps the inside soft while the outside gets crispy

And that's okay, because there's a bin of arugula, some questionable pine nuts from last spring, good olive oil, a block of gruyere, and too many lemons. We've got a blender thingy. I've got taste buds. So why not?
Turns out you can throw things into the blender thingy and you've got "free" pesto.
Bless being culinarily competent.
