Yes, all chocolate chip cookies are baked. I'm talking about the recipe from the Brooklyn-based (and apparently Charleston, SC-based) bakery. Verdict: I was not at all impressed. It's a pretty straightforward recipe, so I'm gonna go out on a limb and say I followed the directions properly. The dough tastes good, but the cookies themselves were soft and cakey, not chewy or crisp. They weren't terrible, but they were very unremarkable; so much so, I didn't even bother with pictures.
Because this bakery, and their cookbook, is so well-regarded, I'm willing to stipulate that the cookie they make is actually very good, despite my experience. So next time I'm in Brooklyn (or next Brooklyn visitor heading to LA), I will be happy to give it a shot. In the name of research, of course.
Here's the recipe I followed.
