Literally the perfect cookie
😲❤️
Butter melted or softened?
Sorry! The butter is room temp softened, folks!:)
It looks perfect! May I ask why the baking soda should be dissolved in hot water? I’ve never seen this done before
I really want cookies now. Also, 10/10 chance I would have dropped that on the floor holding it on the spatula. You were brave, lol
Anything special in the cooling?
Oh dang!!! 👩🍳👩🍳👩🍳
350F?
Wow! This is the perfect cookie. I’ve never dissolved the baking soda in hot water before, does it change the overall structure of the cookie?
The cookie looks delicious! How long do you bake them, and at what temperature?
looks amazing!
Okay I need to get stoned and eat some of these.
Love the look of the chocolate chunks on top. Such a good idea! Literally the perfect chocolate chip cookie 😍
The perfect cookie!
Doesn’t that feel good? I had to do the same thing when I moved from sea level to 7000 ft. It took 4 attempts before I got it to be how I like them.
Thanks a million for the recipe!
I use [this recipe](https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/10813/best-chocolate-chip-cookies/) from All Recipes – pretty much the same as yours. That’s where I first saw mixing the baking soda in warm water. I agree it seems to work well!
Seems extremely similar this this cookie recipe I’ve used for years from Allrecipes (which is absolutely amazing btw.) Does this happen to be the recipe you began with?

I’m turned off by big chunks of chocolate. I want chocolate that melts.
Idk it looks too flat for me. I like my cookies to have a bit of height.
I love and hate seeing delicious food that I cannot eat right now
That’s a thing of beauty! I’m going to try dissolving the baking soda like you’ve said here next time! I personally love chopping the chocolate baking bars into coarse chunks and scraping it all into the bowl with the little bits/flakes of chocolate from the chopping. It gives the cookie an all around yummy chocolate chip flavor. But regardless I could eat an entire batch! Thank you for sharing!
Very pretty 😍😍😍😍
Do you hand mix / whisk everything or use stand mixer
Do you chill the dough?
thank you for the recipe! those cookies do look perfect!
I want one!
That is the one going in the case out front for suuure
Absolutely gorgeous!
Yessss this is my idea of a dream cookie 👏🏽 I’m working on finding my “perfect” recipe definitely gonna try yours!
What’s the white specks on top? I don’t see it listed in recipe
How much is two sticks of butter exactlty? I’m using different measurements.
Get in my belly!
Perfect is an understatement! Now I might have to bake some cookies this weekend lol. Thanks for sharing the recipe! 🙂
Everything was 2s until the BP and flour! 2 cups sugar. 2 sticks butter. 2 eggs. 2 teaspoons vanilla. Then the BP and flour had to go and ruin it! I’m okay with the BP since it gets dissolved in 2 teaspoons water. But the flour!
I’ll definitely be trying this recipe!!
