FAQs
What is the secret to chewy mint chocolate chip cookies?
The secret to achieving chewy mint chocolate chip cookies often lies in a few key aspects of the recipe and baking process:
- Properly Softened Butter: Butter should be softened but not melted. Melted butter can cause cookies to spread too much and become thin or crispy.
- Don't Overbake: Cookies continue to cook on the baking sheet even after you take them out of the oven. For a chewy center, take them out when the edges are set but the middle is still soft.
- Add an Extra Egg Yolk: An extra egg yolk can make your cookies more moist and chewy since yolks have fat and emulsifiers that help create a tender texture.
- Chill the Dough: Chilling the dough for at least an hour before baking solidifies the fats in the cookies. As the cookies bake, the fats take longer to melt than they would at room temperature, which prevents the cookies from spreading too quickly.
- Use Cornstarch: Cornstarch can make cookies more tender and provide a unique melt-in-your-mouth texture.
