COMPOSITION
Flour: The main dry ingredient in cookies is flour, which provides structure and texture. All-purpose flour is commonly used, but variations like whole
wheat flour or almond flour can be used for different dietary preferences.
Sugar: Sugar adds sweetness to the cookies and helps with browning and texture. Granulated white sugar is the most common type, but brown
sugar or powdered sugar can be used for different flavors and textures.
Fat: Fat, usually in the form of butter or margarine, is essential for flavor, texture, and moisture in cookies. It helps create a tender and rich texture.
Sometimes, vegetable shortening or oil can also be used.
Eggs: Eggs provide moisture, structure, and binding properties to the dough. They also contribute to the texture and richness of the cookies.
Leavening Agents: Baking soda and/or baking powder are often added to cookies to make them rise and become light and fluffy. These leavening
agents react with other ingredients, such as acid from brown sugar or buttermilk, to create carbon dioxide bubbles that cause the dough to expand.
Flavorings: Various flavorings can be added to enhance the taste of cookies. Vanilla extract is commonly used, but other extracts like almond, lemon,
or peppermint can be used to create different flavors. Spices, such as cinnamon or nutmeg, can also be added.
Salt: Salt is a crucial ingredient that balances the sweetness and enhances the overall flavor of the cookies.
Mix-ins: Additional ingredients like chocolate chips, nuts, dried fruits, or oats are often added to the cookie dough for extra texture, flavor, and visual
appeal.
PROCESSING:
Cream the sugars, corn syrup, shortening, salt, dry eggs, and baking
powder at 1st speed. Scrape, then increase to 2nd speed for 3 minutes.
Mix the water and vanilla, and slowly add it in at 1st speed. Scrape, and
then mix at 2nd speed for 2 minutes.
Mix the pastry flour and chocolate chips in a separate container and
add it into the mixer. Mix at 1st speed for 15 seconds; scrape down and
mix at 2nd speed for 15 seconds. Do not over-mix at this stage, or you
will develop the gluten network and produce a tougher cookie.
Transfer cookie dough into depositor. Deposit cookies onto sheet pans
with liners.
Bake in the oven at 350oF for 13-15 min, or until cookies are golden
brown on the bottom.
Remove the cookies from the oven and transfer onto a cooling shelf
immediately; otherwise you will overbake the cookies, as they continue
cooking on the pan.
Cool for 1 hr before packaging.
Cookies can be stored frozen for extended shelf life.
Frozen cookies can be thawed and served without reheating.
