Genius Hour: Week 7

For this week, I decided to go back to the first cookie that I tried. There were endless amounts of jumbo cookie recipes for chocolate chip cookies, so I decided to test out yet another recipe before ensuring that the one which I tried was truly the best.

I came across this recipe from Cooking Classy - http://www.cookingclassy.com/recipe-one-chocolate-chip-cookie/, and I loved that it was just a single recipe because it allowed me to satisfy my craving without making a full batch. I also appreciated that this blogger provided some context rather than just sharing the recipe. There were also tons of positive reviews which was great.

This cookie ended up being delicious, especially with a cool glass of milk. I realized that the first cookie was more of a cake texture, while this one was more cookie-like. However, the texture from week one was probably still my favourite. 

I also had some extra time on my hands so I attempted a second variation of a chocolate chip cookie. This second recipe came from Cookies and Cups. The recipe can be found at http://cookiesandcups.com/chocolate-chip-cookie-dunkers/. 

This was really neat because although it was a jumbo cookie, the way it was cut was much different than the typical variations that I had seen. The cookies ended up being a bit more thin that I would have liked, but they were still terrific. Here is a picture:
