5 Tips to Make Soft and Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies
1. Use egg whites for chewy cookies. If a recipe calls for one egg, use 2 egg whites.2. Always put cookie dough on a cold or room temperate baking sheet.
2. If you are baking multiple batches, then run cold water over the baking sheets before placing more dough on it. This will help you make soft and chewy cookies.
3. Use cold dough if you want chewy cookies. Refrigerate dough overnight or at least for a few hours.
4. Bake at a lower temperature for a longer amount of time for soft and chewy chocolate chip cookies.
