    Cakeflour doesn’t exist in some countries so here is a substitute
    Step 1: Measure 1 cup all-purpose flour. Remove 2 Tablespoons.
    Step 2: Measure 2 Tablespoons cornstarch. Add to the flour. Cornstarch contains less gluten than flour, so it’s a wonderful tenderizing ingredient to help make cake flour.
    Step 3: Sift together TWICE. Basically, sift into a mixing bowl once. Then run it through the sifter one more time. Sifting not only mixes the two ingredients together appropriately, it aerates the mixture so the consistency is similar to real cake flour.
    Step 4: Measure 1 cup from this mixture. You’ll have about 1 cup anyway, but sometimes sifting can produce more volume since it’s adding air.

      maaike verbeke I just looked it up because in Italy it’s all labeled differently. Apparently cake flour is the most common one, very refined and with low protein content, we call it farina 00. All purpose seems to be the one with more protein, for us is farina 0, that I usually use when something needs to rest and rise, like brioche, bread, babbà,... all things with b (no, joking, sorry)

    Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!, I followed this recipe, the cookies were delicious. I didn't have cake flour, so instead, I used self raising flour. I also used 125 g of walnuts instead (I didn't have more) of 165 g. The dough was 1360 g, which means 11 cookies at 170 gr/ 6 oz each with that fascinating rustic look. I used 2 spoons to weigh each cookie, I never touched the dough. The cookies were amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I chilled each cookie dough for 48 hrs before baking. Taste, color, flavor, texture, were incredible!!!!!!!!!!, rich, tall cookie, crispy from the outside and melts in the mouth from the inside. Thank you very much for the recipe!!!!!!!!!!!, the best cookies I've ever made!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have a very small oven 30 cm x 30 cm, I only bake one cookie at a time, I preheated the oven for 11 minutes at 220C and baked one cookie for 16 minutes at the highest rack of my oven, it came out perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At 13 minutes, with 6 oz cookies, I ended up with burnt bottoms and undercooked insides. I suggest making them smaller for "normal" shitty range appliances.

  • @ImurTuta
    @ImurTuta Před rokem +118

    I followed the recipe and they were delicious. I love taking a good recipe and modifying it to my own preferences, so here's my changes. I used chocolate wafers instead of bars and only 1 1/3 cup roughly chopped, no corn starch, instead of walnuts I used sliced almonds (sweeter then walnuts) that I then crushed and I used half the amount that was called for, also added 1/2 tsp imitation vanilla for more flavor in the dough since these are so fluffy and kind of rely on good chocolate and nuts for flavor and I took some of that out. Lastly and I think this is the most important "change" (uncle Joshua did this good but it can be better) after melting the butter (just barley letting it brown ands more flavor) and mixing it with the sugars, eggs, and vanilla, you gotta keep mixing until the butter is back to room temp. He did this by letting the melted butter rest, but the importance of this step being done correctly was understated. If the butter is to melty and liquid when you add the dry mix in you will have no air and this is why ppl get dense pancake cookies. As the butter starts to harden back up from cooling down, this is when the air can get trapped inside the creamed butter, and we want to preserve the air in this dough, so when we add the dry to the wet creamed butter you only mix/stir/fold as much as you need to to combine them. Over mixing can squeeze the air out and your back to flat cookies. I also don't want 6oz cookies so I used a 2oz scoop over filled and the dough sat over night in the fridge. Cooked at 350°f for about 13-15 min top rack, pull them as soon as the edged are golden ( thats after edges are yellow and before they go brown). This is the best cookie (imo) I have ever made. Lmk if u try it!
    Edit: I don't buy cake flour cuzzzzz I don't make cakes🤷, not about to start just for cookies. I bet it is better, but I ain't got time for that or space to store it. SO I just used all purpose flour. Whatever the sum of the 2 flours was, that's how much I used. Also weigh ur flour, its just better. Don't use measuring cups for flour....ever.

    I followed this recipe. I split the mix and made two different cookies: one with 70% Cacao chocolate and walnuts, and another one with milk chocolate (I know, Joshua advised against milk chocolate, but I already had those two Hershey's bars) and M&M's. However I found three things to consider:
    1. I discovered that the milk chocolate and m&m's cookies flattened significantly more than the other ones (dark chocolate and walnuts cookies). I am not sure if it was because of the kind of chocolate, but my guess is that the walnuts helped avoiding more mix from melting, hence maintaining the thickness. In any case, y couldn't get very thiccc cookies, at least not as thick as Joshua got. I'm gonna experiment with proportions to see if something thick-wise changes.
    2. I could get lightly thicker cookies by making them half the size (3 oz ea) and baking them the next day. Probably longer refrigeration times helps with that.
    3. I had a bad time with the first batch: I am not sure if it is because of my oven, but i couldn't cook the cookies properly with the 425°F/220°C and 10/13 minutes setup. It overcooked in the outside and remained way too underdone in the inside. It was a total mess cause they couldn't even keep their shape while holding them with my hands. My solution was to change the temperature-time setup to 360°F/180°C and 20 minutes... and the results are amaziiinnggg. Damn I am so proud I could make such majestic cookies, I never thought I would be able to do it. Thanks Joshua!

    Hi guys for anyone new trying to recreate this. This recipe is spot on!
    So a couple of things i found. After you make the cookie, let it rest in the fridge for 3hrs then put them all in the freezer overnight (after you have shaped them into 6oz balls) i got a better height and structure and it’s cooked perfectly brown on the outside and not burnt all.
    If you want to bake it, pre-heat your oven for 5-10 mins and then directly from the freezer bake the cookie. Mine turned out insane i got a bit of a higher rise compared to the video. Please make sure you let the dough rest and stayed in the oven overnight
