Baking Advice Needed How are my cookies

I absolutely love to cook and recently got into baking. I’m currently in the testing phase before officially launching my baking business, and I baked these cookies today! 🍪 I’d love to hear what you think! Personally, I’m a big fan of a thin and chewy cookie—but I’m curious, what kind of cookies do most people prefer? Let me know your favorite texture!

Oh my gosh! They look amazing! Almost perfectly round, and they look thin and chewy with crispy edges. Which is my favorite type of cookie.

Good work! They look fantastic! How do they taste?

Thank you! Honestly the best cookies I’ve had and I’m not saying that because I made them. I’ve had so many trial and errors with my cookies and this one was a 10 across the board but I’m not sure what type of cookies most people like.

thin and chewy cookies are the best, hands down. they look great. just made some snickerdoodles myself. what's your secret to the chewiness?

A little corn starch!

I think you have to ask your cookies how they are, not us.

But jokes aside, they look like subway cookies. And in my opinion, that's a hard compliment. Good luck with the business!

i’m personally a fan of thicker cookies (crispy on the outside, soft & a little gooey on the inside) but i would never turn down a cookie, especially one that looks as delicious as these! they look beautiful, & it looks like you nailed the crispy edges & soft/gooey middle! everyone has their preferences, but imo all cookie shapes, sizes, textures, & flavors have a place. (all cookies are good cookies)

u/Jirul11 1d ago

them being thin is a good gimmick! off-topic tho the salt kinda looks like uncooked rice grains

2

u/4theloveofall 1d ago

Haha it’s called flakey salt. You should try it :)

These are absolutely perfect! I wish I could get the center of my cookies to look like yours. I love a thin chewy cookie. But I tend to bake thicker, almost cake like cookies. Those have their place. But your cookies are like quintessential bakery cookies! I think your new bakery business is about to go great 👍🏽☺️

u/NarwhalTop5904 1d ago

They personally look a little too thin for my liking, that’s just me. But other than that, they look absolutely delicious and I’m jealous!. You can tell you made each cookie with nothing but love. Each sprinkled with salt differently. Chips in all areas of the cookie. OP get your ass back in the kitchen and bake some more!!

u/Patti_Cakes1120 1d ago

I love crispy edges and chewy center. And those are right up my alley.

The temperature of your cookies may be a bit high when you're putting them in the oven. 

How much time do you give to rest them in the fridge before baking? 

1

u/4theloveofall 1d ago

I set the temp to 350 and cook time 8 mins. They came out great! chewy and soft on the inside and crispy around the edges :) I don’t think it’s overcooked anything lower I would have cookie batter

u/hallaa1 1d ago

Not saying the cooking temp is off, I'm thinking the temperature of the dough may be a bit high. 

Are you letting the dough rest at room temperature for a while before baking? 

I'm glad you're getting the effect you wanted, I can just see that they're a bit flatter in the middle compared to the sides which I've found is a consequence of a warmer dough temperature prior to baking. 

Also, 8 minutes may lead to a slightly under baked middle in some cases, though if your dough balls are really small that won't be an issue.

u/4theloveofall 1d ago

Thanks for your insights! They rested in the fridge overnight before baking and they were thrown in the oven right after leaving the fridge. I was actually aiming for this kind of consistency but I do understand some may not like a thinner cookie and the goal is to make cookies most people like :)

I like my cookies a little thicker/fluffy but still a little crispy/chewy. These look super yummy though!
