These are the Half-n-Half Chocolate Chip Cookies I’ll be making for the Bake a Distinction occasion on Nov. 5 from 1 to three p.m. with my good friend Zoe Francois (I hope you’ll be a part of even if you happen to’re not within the Twin Cities)! They’re half double chocolate cookies, half gooey chocolate chip cookie, primarily based off my Chocolate Chip Cookie 2.0 recipe that so a lot of you like.
We’ll be baking some wonderful desserts( Zoe might be making Basque Cheesecake with Roasted Pumpkin!) and elevating cash for Jose Andres’s World Central Kitchen.
From environmental catastrophes to upheaval across the globe, each penny raised helps World Central Kitchen present meals in response to humanitarian, local weather, and neighborhood crises.
How To Assemble The Cookie Dough:
- In a big bowl, mix the melted butter, granulated and brown sugars, and salt. Combine to mix. Add the egg, yolk, vanilla, baking powder, and baking soda, and whisk collectively till completely mixed. Add the flour and stir in till mixed. Add the chopped chocolate and stir once more. It might take a minute to include the entire chocolate, and you should utilize your palms to knead it into the dough if mandatory.

Press one ball of the Chocolate Chip Dough and one ball of the Double Chocolate Dough collectively, however hold their distinctive colours. Press the piece right into a cookie scoop or roll it right into a ball. Place 8 cookies on every sheet pan. Sprinkle every cookie with somewhat flaky salt, if desired.
Measuring Flour
All through my recipes posted on this web site, 1 cup of flour equals 142g. Please word that 1 cup of flour can vary wherever from 120g to 142g, relying on the baker or web site. I discovered that after weighting many cups of flour and averaging the full, mine all the time ended up round this quantity. If I’m posting a recipe from one other cookbook, I’ll use no matter gram measure of flour utilized in that guide, which is why you might even see a couple of posts with a distinct cup measurement.
Totally different manufacturers of flour have various ranges of protein, starting from low to excessive, which may end up in very completely different outcomes when baking. I’ve discovered Gold Medal all-purpose unbleached flour to be the best choice for a lot of of my recipes; I take advantage of it in all of the baked items that don’t use yeast. For yeasted doughs that decision for all-purpose flour, I like to make use of King Arthur Model. If you’re utilizing White Lily flour, please word that it’s a low protein flour and doesn’t soak up liquid the identical as common all-purpose flours. Verify the again of the flour bag for directions on substituting it for normal all-purpose flours.
Making the Cooking Dough Forward + Freezing
Cookie dough might be shaped and refrigerated in a single day, then baked the subsequent day; the cookies may have an additional minute to bake if chilled. Cookie dough will also be shaped into balls and frozen for as much as two weeks: let the cookies sit out at room temperature till the oven preheats.
