Chilling your cookie dough in the fridge before baking has its perks! It helps prevent the cookies from spreading too rapidly when they are baking. Chilling the dough cools and hardens the butter, slowing down its melting during baking. This gradual expansion helps maintain the desired chewy texture. Skipping chilling your dough in the fridge may result in flatter cookies. They’ll still be delicious though, so if you’re short on time don’t stress.

Cookies made from chilled dough tend to have a more pronounced and deep flavor profile. For more flavour, it’s best to chill cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. Extending the refrigeration time from 30 minutes up to 24 hours is even better! (The dough can be stored in the fridge for up to a week. If I know I have guests over the weekend, I often make a batch of dough earlier in the week and store it in the fridge until I bake them fresh on the day.

HOW LONG DO I BAKE THE COOKIES?

To achieve soft and gooey cookies, bake for 5-8 minutes. Keep in mind that the cookies may firm up slightly as they cool.
As a guide, to achieve different textures in your cookies:

For a gooey and slightly underdone cookie, bake for 5 minutes.
For a soft and slightly gooey center, bake for 8 minutes.
For a chewy and crispy texture, bake for 10+z minutes.

How to store cookies

Storing room temperature

These cookies can be stored at room temperature for 4-5 days. Place the cooked (and completely cooled) cookies in an airtight container and keep them on your kitchen counter.

Storing in the freezer

You have the option to freeze cookie dough and conveniently bake it later. Simply shape the dough into balls and store them in a freezer-safe container. You can also freeze the dough before shaping it into balls; just make sure to thaw it before forming and baking the cookies. This dough remains freezer-friendly for up to 3 months.

Storing in the refridgerator

This cookie dough can be safely stored in the fridge for up to a week. Interestingly, the longer you let the dough rest in the fridge, the more it enhances its flavor.

Dough can be stored for up to 1 week
