Tips & Tricks (5)
- Raisin Pre-Soak Magic 💦Soak raisins in warm water or rum for 15 minutes before adding to the cookie dough to ensure they stay plump and prevent burning during baking.
- Spice Layering Technique 🌶️Toast your ground spices like chipotle, cinnamon, and ginger in a dry pan for 30 seconds before mixing to intensify their flavor profile and add depth to the cookies.
- Oat Texture Mastery 🥣Use a mix of quick-cooking and rolled oats to create a perfectly chewy cookie with varied texture - quick oats help bind, while rolled oats provide a rustic bite.
- Chill for Chew 🧊Refrigerate the cookie dough for at least 1 hour before baking to prevent spreading and enhance the chewy, dense texture of the cookies.
- Butter Temperature Trick 🧈Let butter soften at room temperature for 30-45 minutes before creaming, ensuring it's pliable but not melted for optimal cookie structure and richness.
