whats the ideal cookie supposed to look like?
Heheh
dirt
The real question is: clay, sand or silt?
Commonly clay, but looks like OP used sandy loam :D
Oh snap!
Don’t make me take you behind the woodshed.
Middle left is not too much flour IMO. I like my chocolate chip cookies at the supercritical state between cookies and scones.
When we were kids my mom used to rush the mixing and there would be chunks of sugar like the size of the chocolate chips randomly in some cookies. It was so delicious, and I assumed she did it on purpose. Years later when I asked her for her recipe I was so disappointed that the sugar chunks weren’t in there.
Might have also been a factor of humidity and the sugar just sitting in the pantry in a paper bag or box.
You could make the usual recipe with 75% of the sugar, and then also add a couple Tb of sugar you let turn hard and crunchy at the chips stage.
The cookie with extra butter is rich and delicious.
I agree. I always prefer the “too much butter” cookies.
You can tell it’s delicious just by looking at it, it looks slightly flattened and melty. That’s what the best cookies always look like.
I never had chocolate chip cookies, but there are dedicated recipes for chocolate butter cookies
Wait, you’ve never had a chocolate chip cookie?
just add 50 lbs of butter, 70 lbs of flour, 100 lbs of sugar, 10 lbs of baking soda and 500 eggs to the dirt … just throw it all into a cement mixer and pour it into a blast furnace for 30 seconds
What did it say originally instead of “dirt”?
Nothing. It was an empty space.
If they are hard as a rock and make the dog throw up, then you added too much salt (~7 yr old me when I messed up the measurements). Dirt would probably be better.
I did that too when I was a kid. I used a half tablespoon of salt instead of a half teaspoon. Blech! We spared our dog, though.
The iron deficiency yearns
As do the B vitamins.

Too much butter looks like something to try
