Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     dessert

Time 45m

Yield about 1 dozen 5-inch cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

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

Steps:

  • 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.

BIG OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Big Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies image

From Sunset's Cookies, cookbook. My DH thinks these are the greatest! I admit that they do make great gifts. From the intro: "Oversized cookies, often best-sellers at fund-raising events, are easy to make at home. [These...] reach a diameter of about 7 inches -- enough cookie to last all day! For variety, you can use butterscotch-flavored chips instead of chocolate."

Provided by mersaydees

Categories     Dessert

Time 50m

Yield 1 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine, softened
1 1/2 cups firmly packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 1/3 cups rolled oats
1 (12 ounce) package semisweet chocolate or 1 (12 ounce) package butterscotch chips
1 1/2 cups nuts, chopped

  • Add oats, chocolate chips, and nuts; mix well.
  • Shape each cookie by spooning dough into a 1/2-cup measure, level off, and turn out onto a greased baking sheet. Space cookies a minimum of 6 inches apart and 2 1/2 from edge of baking sheet.
  • Lightly grease the bottom of a pie pan, dip in granulated sugar, and use to flatten each cookie into a 5 1/2-inch circle. To even each cookie's thickness, press it lightly with your finger, if necessary.

BIG ISLAND-STYLE STONE COOKIES



Big Island-Style Stone Cookies image

*Warning!* Don't try this recipe unless you like tooth-breakingly hard, crunchy cookies! This recipe is from the Honolulu Star Bulletin and is a copy-cat for Mountain View Bakery's stone cookies. People either love 'em or hate 'em. I'm posting this for the die-hards like me who can't get enough of 'em!

Provided by Chilicat

Categories     Dessert

Time 50m

Yield 2 dozen, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1/3 cup cream
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 cups flour

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper or grease lightly.
  • Cream butter with sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs and cream; mix well. Add baking soda and vanilla; mix well. Add flour; mix well.
  • Dough may be crumbly. Form by hand into 2-inch balls, place on cookie sheet and flatten.
  • Bake until very firm and brown, about 35 minutes. Check cookies frequently in the last few minutes to be sure they don't burn. As long as they feel at all soft in the middle, they need more baking time. Cool and store in airtight container.
  • The writer of the food article had this note: They're done when they no longer give at all when pressed in the center. If they're the least bit soft, leave them in the oven. I actually took mine out a little too early - I was afraid they were getting too brown - and although they were hard, they weren't rock hard. I consider this a plus, but if you really want that tooth-breaking goodness, push the envelope and bake 'em 'til they're solid.

BIG, SUPER-NUTTY PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES



Big, Super-Nutty Peanut Butter Cookies image

I found this recipe on the Cooks Illustrated website and it is very good! Bringing the butter, peanut butter, and eggs to room temperature makes it easier to blend the ingredients. Be sure to grind the peanuts, since whole, and even chopped peanuts tend to slip out of the dough. If using unsalted butter, increase salt to 1 teaspoon. Keep finished cookies refrigerated in airtight container. To restore just-baked chewiness, wrap a cookie in a sheet of paper towel and microwave for approximately 25 seconds. Cool before serving.

Provided by Carrlin

Categories     Dessert

Time 32m

Yield 36 Cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1/2 lb butter, salted (2 sticks)
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup extra-crunchy peanut butter, preferably Jif
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup dry roasted salted peanut, ground in food processor to resemble bread crumbs, about 14 pulses (about 1 cup, packed)

Steps:

  • Adjust oven rack to low center position; heat oven to 350 degrees. Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in medium bowl.
  • In bowl of electric mixer or by hand, beat butter until creamy. Add sugars; beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes with electric mixer, stopping to scrape down bowl as necessary. Beat in peanut butter until fully incorporated, then eggs, one at a time, then vanilla. Gently stir dry ingredients into peanut butter mixture. Add ground peanuts; stir gently until just incorporated.
  • Working with 2 tablespoons dough at a time, roll into large balls, placing them 2 inches apart on a parchment-covered cookie sheet. Following illustration 2, press each dough ball with back of dinner fork dipped in cold water to make crisscross design. Bake until cookies are puffed and slightly brown along edges, but not top, 10 to 12 minutes (they will not look fully baked). Cool cookies on cookie sheet until set, about 4 minutes, then transfer to wire rack to cool completely. Cookies will keep, refrigerated in an airtight container, up to 7 days.

  • Bake for 7-10 minutes or until lightly golden.
  • Allow to cool.
  • To use frozen rolls, allow to thaw in refrigerator, slice and follow normal directions.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your cookies. Look for good-quality butter, sugar, flour, and chocolate chips.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a cookie scoop to portion the dough. This will help you get even-sized cookies that bake evenly.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will help the cookies get crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before eating them. This will help them set and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

Baking big cookies is a fun and rewarding experience. By following these tips, you can create delicious, giant cookies that will be a hit with your family and friends. So what are you waiting for? Get baking!
