Baking with Dorie: Lemon-Lemon Lemon Cream
I'm home from work barfing my guts out and I still want to make this! I'm bringing mini tarts to work on Friday...this just looks way to good!

Is the link to that spreadsheet working? When I click on it all I get is an opportunity to create my own web page, not quite the chocolate chip cookie recipe I was looking for... And Lorraine, how are the exploding brains?
These chocolate chip breakfast cookies are the most awsome cookies I have ever tasted, I am not a big chocolate chip cookie fan (maybe because I never found a recipe I liked!) I made these and now we can't stop making them! my husband me and my 5 kids are addicted to them. I always make a double batch. I think something about melting the butter and adding the brown sugar to it makes it taste like nothing I have ever tasted in a cookie. you can even over cook them and they still taste incredible! I will never use another chocolate chip cookie recipe.
I think the best is the Nieman Marcus recipe that circulates around sometimes---with the ground up oatmeal & chopped milk chocolate in addition to the semi sweet chips, brown sugar, etc. Scoop onto lightly sprayed pans, wet fingers & mash down slightly. If baked right they are the quinticential perfect crunchy around the outside, softer/slightly chewy in the middle.
I use Meg's recipe, slightly adapted for my sanity (I converted everything to weights and then rounded things up or down to make my life easier). You know what? It really is a mean chocolate chip cookie.
I have my own recipe, devised to have my favorite aspects of chocolate chip cookies: a little chew, a little crunch, and just enough chocolate.
Of course, that doesn't mean that I don't want to try every recipe I come across just in case they're better. I suspect everyone has a touch of the grass-is-greener mentality when it comes to cookies.
I've never found a recipe that works better than the Toll House classic.
The breakfast cookie sounds great, but instead of cranberries, I'd do dried cherries. Cherries & chocolate? Wow!
Anyone try Tia Harrison's "The Perfect" Chocolate Chip Cookies from CHOW?
Alton Brown's the Chewy. Best. Cookies. Ever.
I just made this and it's extraordinary! And the instructions are fantastic - I followed them precisely and got perfect results. This would be lovely as one ingredient in a British-style pudding as well.
I actually used this recipe for about a year...until I bought Baking Illustrated and was totally sold on theirs! It's much chewier (but still with a crisp edge), and I think that the flavor of the cookie part is superior. The instructions and explanation of the recipe are also, as is expected from the Cooks Illustrated crew, extremely and awesomely precise!
We all have our favorite, though, so no hard feelings :)
