NESTLE TOLL HOUSE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES (HIGH ALTITUDE)



Nestle Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookies (High Altitude) image

It took me almost two years to clue into the fact that most of my formerly successful baking recipes were failing because I moved to a high altitude location. I've yet to try this high altitude recipe for chocolate chip cookies (from the back of the Toll House bag), but certainly plan on it the next time as the cookies I've baked with the regular Toll House recipe turn out flat as can be. The recipe specifies high altitude as 5,200 feet (or 1,585 meters). Feel free to substitute your favorite baking chip -- I like the chocolate caramel swirled kind.

Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect chewy texture, use a combination of brown sugar and granulated sugar. Brown sugar provides moisture and chewiness, while granulated sugar adds a crispy edge.
  • Make sure to use old-fashioned oats for a heartier texture. Quick oats will absorb too much moisture and make the cookies dry and crumbly.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will give them a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will develop the gluten in the flour and make the cookies tough.
  • For a gooey center, press a few extra chocolate chips into the center of each cookie before baking.

Conclusion:

These oatmeal chocolate chip cookies are the perfect combination of chewy, gooey, and chocolatey. They're easy to make and always a hit with friends and family. Whether you're a baking novice or a seasoned pro, you'll love this recipe. So grab your ingredients and preheat your oven, because it's time to bake some delicious oatmeal chocolate chip cookies!
