Delicious Two-Day Chocolate Chip Cookies

so I'm one of those people who believe that when it comes to recipe videos the more views equals better quality if we want to make the best chocolate chip cookie ever we're gonna first type it into the YouTube search bar and then filter it by view count and this is the first video that came up and just by watching this trailer I know that's something I don't want to click on the second and the third most viewed videos are both from tasty and they turn out to be the same recipe so with a combined view count of 67 million we have to make this two-day chocolate chip cookie recipe let's get started this is the two day cookie so the first thing we're gonna do we're gonna make some toffee a lot of butter into this pan six tablespoons of butter into the pan light brown sugar and a good amount of salt three quarters of a cup of light brown sugar and a teaspoon of salt important that you stir pretty constantly throughout the process so we'll put the pan on medium heat and start stirring constantly the butter and the sugar are coming together pretty nicely butter and sugar are coming together now nicely beautiful dark golden brown ribbons happening right now beautiful golden brown ribbons happening right now look at this flip that's at 290 so that means uh this is ready to come out once it reaches 290 it's ready to come out got a nice tray with parchment paper for the landing a nice tray with parchment paper for landing it's probably one of my favorite parts oh I love it all right I'm gonna make the same sounds oh what the hell hell I guess the oil from the butter got separated and it's starting to look like the combination of number one number two normally I just carry on but this looks so bad I'm gonna redo it starting with three quarters of a cup of brown sugar and then six tablespoons of butter which I cut into cubes for better melting and a teaspoon of salt I'm gonna Stir It Like My Life depend on it as I train my left hand in repetitive motion since I was 14 years old and this is where the final product looked like something about it still seem a little sauce but at least it's better than the previous attempt we'll put it in the freezer for about an hour all right while the toffee cools we're gonna make some brown butter the first thing to start with is a lot of butter I gave the recipe in the description and it said two sticks of butter which is a block and that leaves the milk solids behind turned golden brown and that is because of something amazing called the Meyer reaction so what is a Maya reaction we don't know what the miter reaction is I don't know exactly either but it's a chemical reaction that occurs in between the amino acids in protein when exposed to heat is responsible for the Browning and flavored development in a variety of cooked Foods including but not limited to bread roasted coffee and grilled meat in this particular case since our butter is composed of water whey protein solids and fat The Continuous heating will evaporate the water leaving the Whey Protein solids to be cooked by fat while gaining deeper color and flavor so to summarize it butter the water kind of melts off and evaporates when Browning butter you have to make sure you're stirring constantly otherwise this will happen if you want to go really slow and add one Ice Cube in at a time after the butter gets nice and brown like this we're gonna put some ice cubes into it to add back the moisture and here's what it sounds like it's kind of interesting all right dude we're gonna set you aside but to smell great that's what every sports team coach said to me when I was in Middle School first um dark brown sugar or dry ingredients a cup and a half of a light brown sugar good old white sugar three quarters of a cup of old white sugar a lot of salt actually I think that's one of the secrets two teaspoons of salt baking soda a key bump of baking soda and some espresso powder I think espresso powder helps knock back any of that fat or that sugar that might be a little too much will harness the power of espresso powder to turn this clump of sugar and butter into a healthy snack I've never seen espresso powder before and this is the closest thing I could find at Target the star ingredient of the show the brown butter and now we add in our brown butter oh this is going to be pretty dark compared to the other ones that we've done before like many other things I do prefer a darker batter for the bigger and better experience four eggs go in a one two three and a full so he just used four whole eggs here but in the description they said you only need two eggs so I'm gonna do somewhere in the middle two whole eggs and two egg yolks a lot of good vanilla and a lot of good vanilla you really want to beat it until smooth dissolved mixture of almost like a ribbon like consistency you want to beat everything together so it looks like a really thick Jam or Sierra [Music] okay I'm taking a break from consuming questionable ingredients because I haven't been feeling so well since I ate mold a little while ago all right dubbing in the flour slowly incorporate to these beautiful ribbons of this butter and sugar mix so we're going in with two cup and a quarter of all-purpose flour it's gonna take a while to beat the flour into the batter so as always I will beat it on the couch nope this is not what you think it is it's actually a clam while it looks weird this is one of the longest living animals in the entire Animal Kingdom with an average lifespan of 140 years this is some nice chocolate in bars and we're just gonna go in pretty large chunks so we're gonna pile up some dark chocolate and chop into big chunks after about 30 minutes to an hour in the freezer make sure when you do this you don't have any neighbors and it's not 2 A.M it's 2 A.M but I don't really like my neighbors so oh yeah I Can't Rap thank God he didn't start I'm already cringed out what kind of idiot raps when he cooks two trailer park girls go around the outside get in there with your hands I'm trying to make sure the chocolate and the toffee are both evenly distributed some of these objects look pretty sharp so I'm not gonna use my hands we're just roughly folding them in until they're evenly distributed generous amounts almost the size of a tennis ball but you're gonna spend two days might as well make a little bit bigger well I spent 23 years trying to make them a little bit bigger it doesn't work like that once all our dough is shaped perfectly we'll align them evenly on the sheet tray this recipe specifically requires it to rest for 36 hours so why does resting make them taste better well I actually worked at a bakery before the reason why they were so good is because the owner always rested it for at least 36 hours so I just realized I worked at a bakery before is the baking equivalent of trust me bro aka the most credible source of information so we're taking the matter into our own hands I'll put these in the fridge and rest it for 36 hours and we'll bake this one right away we'll taste both and see if there's really a difference just in case you can't tell this is not a portrait of my face even though it's in the same shape we baked it at 375 for 18 minutes and it seems like the cookie lost all of its gooeyness and became sort of like a flatbread overall it tastes pretty bland and untextured it's supposed to be a chocolate chip cookie but somehow it tastes like a sugar cookie we'll wait for 36 hours and bake them again okay so these have been in for pretty much two days now after two days they visibly got a little darker so we're gonna pick the prettiest one roughly shape it again into a ball and then bake it at 325 for 18 minutes I ended up baking two and this is how they turned out it doesn't really look like the original ones from the video what a two day cookie looks like straight from the oven once again my cookies are on the flat side and there's not much texture on the surface area it almost looks as if they're undercooked in the center but I think aging it in the fridge for two days helped this stay a lot thicker than when we baked it right away really take these to the next level gonna use some flaky finishing sea salt I couldn't find in my grocery store so I'm gonna skip on the pretension I mean flaky sea salt okay so vanilla milk it just a splash of vanilla so he's serving the cookies with vanilla milk I'm gonna make my own version starting with some ice just some good old-fashioned milk and a teaspoon of instant espresso and just to top it off a splash of heavy cream and we top our vanilla milk off with some water cheers and there you have it a two day brown butter toffee chocolate chip cookie with flaky sea salt served with vanilla milk so here we have it a two day chocolate chip cookie with vanilla milk ninety percent of the two day cooking time is just Aging in the fridge with the same logic I can make the claim that all my radioactive chicken dishes took more than a week to make well I think this cookie is looking pretty good but I wonder what you guys think on Instagram [Music] all right I'm gonna stack up to cookies and split them in half be prepared to feel some type of way I would totally just take a big bite like this but for a video let's taste it properly and raid it one through ten [Music] the cookie is very gooey and you can see the melted toffee in the middle okay as I'm editing this I realize there's a fly in my house look me know in the comments how to get rid of bugs in an apartment or chase the cookie down with some vanilla milk it truly is an extraordinary experience the cookies perfectly cooked crunchy on the outside and gooey on the inside the chocolate is nice and melted and occasionally you get a little bit of crunchy texture from the unmelted toffee this is really the best of all Worlds the chocolate adds a lot of that dark richness and then the toffee provides the caramel butteriness and is all enclosed by the cookie dough which has a hint of coffee to cut through the fat and the sugeriness so overall I'll give this recipe a 9.1 out of 10. I recommend all of you to try at home thank you for 200 000 subscribers it means a lot to me I'm extremely excited about the growth of our community and I can't wait to share more recipes with you alright thank you inside [Music] [Applause] [Music] this is not what you think it is it's actually a clam well it looks weird it's one of those long let's cut the gooey duck clam let's cook a gooey duck clam nope this is not what you think it is it's actually a clam well it looks weird this is one of the longest living animals in the entire Animal Kingdom with an average lifespan of 140 years let's cook it up and caught right at the base these thin cut pieces are perfect for sashimi here goes nothing
