REALLY perfect chocolate chip cookies


I am a BIG fan of America's Test Kitchen and their other brands... including Cook's Illustrated magazine and web site.

So while I don't often bake, I HAD to try their PERFECT chocolate chip cookies. Instead of creaming the butter, you melt and brown it a la beurre noisette (someone's been reading Julia Child's cookbooks lately, right?).

Here's the recipe. http://www.cooksillustrated.com/recipes/detail.asp?docid=19364

  6. Did you let the mix rest overnight? The Splendid Table and the NYT both ran a story last year about the benefits of letting your chocolate chip cookie dough rest in the frig overnight.
