My Tips for Cookie Crisis Success
- Always use room temperature butter for maximum creaminess.
- Don’t overbake! Pull them out when just set for that gooey, soft middle.
- For bakery-style cookies, chill dough for 30 minutes before baking.
- Want extra goo? Press some chocolate chunks on top before baking.
Storage and Make Ahead
Cool cookies completely before storing in an airtight container for up to five days. For hot cookie emergencies, freeze unbaked dough balls, then bake directly from frozen—just add a minute or two to baking time.
