How Every Common Mistake Changes A Cookie

[almaeclu]

That's not MY perfect cookie, but I can see the appeal.

[OhSoPana]

No offense, but whose perfect cookie is this? I don’t need my chocolate chip cookie to lift 2x it’s weight, I just need it to be chewy slightly crunchy and delicious.

[AmatMiguel]

Anyone who says the first cookie is their perfect cookie is either lying or has no taste

[SummikkiTanuki_s]

It’s sad how she called her cookie “perfect” when some of the “mistake” ones looks better

[Catticus]

Nothing can beat a homemade freshly baked chocolate chip cookie. Especially if it's from Grandma.

[maryceleste]

The original "perfect" cookie is really not that good of a cookie. I want it to have some rise and fluff too beside chewiness .

[niharikasharma]

This video is made so carefully! From the texture to the perfect color that a cookie should have. Hands down the best video for the people who are learning to make a cookie
Thankyou insider!

[Catticus]

This shows that insider can make good quality, helpful, and amazing videos that aren't just the same clip and people advertising

“Baking powder has a more chemical taste than baking soda.” That’s the other way around. Too much baking soda in the recipe will give you that taste. Never had issues with too much baking powder affecting the taste.

[amandachwazik]

Excuse you? That “perfect cookie” is far too flat and crispy

[justachick]

Interesting! I hope this is a new series, I'd love to see more.

[dumpling]

The cookie didnt look that appetizing to begin with



Too little chocy chips
+ too thin

[juliannelin]

Their "perfect" cookie was a bit flat looking, but I'm still craving cookies now...

[andresam]

No offense but the cookies didn't look that good in either batch. I think tasty has a better cookie recipe. But not bad insider.
Thanks for the likes

Ok but the original Nestle chocolate chip cookie is neither a particular great cookie nor a good starting point.

So glad I've watched this so that I can then forget all of this useful information in the future when I decide to bake cookies from scratch and then wonder why they turned out badly

[reshinator]

This actually quite interesting and it could help people who never made cookies before. Good video Food Insider.😃
Edit: Thx for the 161 likes it's the most I ever got

I love how different a cookie can be. Their perfect cookie is one I would’ve considered a failure if I made it. I’m saying that from the perspective that I prefer a denser chewy cookie.

[Galaxies]

Why didn't you smash all the cookies with a hammer? That's not fair.
