Best Chocolate Chip Cookies

Aner Gabay

Ingredients:

Butter – 226 gr (1 cup)

Brown sugar (dark) – 260 gr (1.2 cup)

Granulated sugar – 160 gr (0.8 cup)

Salt – 5 gr (1 tsp)

Vanilla extract – 2 tsp

Eggs – 2

All purpose flour – 385 gr (2.75 cups)

Baking soda – 3.75 gr (0.75 tsp)

Pumpkin spice - 5 gr (1 tsp)

Chocolate (or any) chips – 1.25 cup (10 oz)

These amounts yield ~25 big cookies.

Instructions:

Melt 150 gr (13 tbs) of the butter in a pan which is not black (if it is black you wouldn't know when to remove it from the stove, read on…) on a medium heat. When melted continue heating, for we are trying to fry the milk solids a little bit so we get some excellent nutty flavors and smell. Shake the pan occasionally so to stir the solids at the bottom of the pan and to let the water evaporate without jumping on you. Stop heating when you have brown bits of milk solids at the bottom of the pan, and when it amazingly smells like Werther’s Original. Immediately pour into a heat safe bowl, add the rest of the butter and using a whisker stir until all is melted.
