How do i make one big cookie?!
Answers: i cant buy that nestle tollhouse cookie dough stuff, so will it work if i just make a normal cookie dough recipe and just bake it as one big cookie instead of a bunch of them?
I read this question and i think about "Bruce Almighty" =)
thats fine..get and extra big cookie sheet adn just plop it on,,,make sure there is tons of room for it to expand!
Here's a recipe specifically meant to produce one giant cookie.
Giant Chocolate Chip Cookie
* 1 cup butter, softened
* 3/4 cup white sugar
* 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 2 eggs
* 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1 teaspoon baking soda
* 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
* 1 cup chopped walnuts
DIRECTIONS
1. In large bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well.
2. Gradually add flour, salt, and baking soda, beating until well blended. Stir in chocolate chips and nuts.
3. Spread in greased 14 inch round pizza pan. Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 20-25 minutes. Cool cookie in pan on a cooling rack. Decorate as desired.
Yup....take the dough and press it into a cookie sheet, then you have one big cookie!
Press the dough onto a pizza pan and bake it.
Just use this recipe and bake until toothpick comes out clean.
1. Sift
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Sift together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
2. Cream
In a large bowl, cream butter, sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Scrape down sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Beat in vanilla and eggs.
3. Mix
Gradually add dry ingredients to creamed mixture and continue to mix until a smooth dough forms.
4. Fold
Chop pieces of chocolate into chunks. With a rubber spatula, fold chocolate chunks into dough.
5. Form
To form cookies, scoop about 1/4 cup of cookie dough. With greased hands, roll dough into a ball. Place 3 inches apart on cookie sheets lined with parchment paper. Press down the tops of dough slightly.
6. Bake
Bake until cookies are light brown, about 12 minutes for chewy cookies (or 15 minutes for crispy cookies).
7. Cool (Optional)
Allow cookies to cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to wire rack to cool.
Or
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup white sugar
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 (8-ounce) block dark chocolate, coarsely chopped
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper. Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt into a medium bowl and set aside.
Place the butter, sugar, and brown sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer; cream together on medium speed until light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Beat in the vanilla and eggs. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture and continue to mix until a smooth batter forms. Turn off the mixer and fold in the chocolate chunks using the spatula.
To form the cookies, scoop about 1/4 cup of cookie dough into your hands and roll it around into a ball; place them about 3-inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets; you should get about 4 cookies on each pan. Press down the tops of the dough slightly and bake until the cookies are light brown, 12 minutes for chewy cookies, or about 15 minutes for crispy cookies.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining dough/cookie sheets.
yes, but be sure to give it enough room to expand, and give it a lower cooking temperature for longer
