Chick-Fila Copy Cat

Ok, everyone knows that I LOVE Chick-fila cookies. I have never had a cookie that was so good and YES! it is a fast food cookie but it is amazing!! I have been looking up recipes that were close to what I thought would be and I found one that contain oats and everything else. Well the girl was trying to do the same thing I was, trying to recreate the Chick-fila cookie. Well here comes the science of baking. She said that her cookie was flat and little more chew than she wanted. So I took her recipe:


Chocolate Chip Cookies
recipe adapted from Baking Illustrated
makes 20 cookies

1 cup plus 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated white sugar
1 egg + 1 egg yolk
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 1/4 cup milk chocolate chunks
1 1/2 cups oats

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Whisk together flour, oats, soda, and salt together in a bowl. Mix melted butter and sugars together and then add egg and vanilla. Mix in dry ingredients until thoroughly combined, then stir in chocolate chips. Bake 11-13 minutes and allow to cool on sheet for 5 minutes.



 and changed it some. and one the first try it was OK just a little cakey because I added an extra egg and then just adding baking powder. So I am one my next venture for the perfect cookie.


I just made another batch and I think it is very close to Chick-fila cookie.


Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 tsp baking soda
1/8 tsp Baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
6 tbsp unsalted butter
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated white sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 cup milk chocolate chunks
1 1/2 cups oats

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Whisk together flour, oats, soda, and salt together in a bowl. cream butter and sugars together and then add egg and vanilla. Mix in dry ingredients until thoroughly combined, then stir in chocolate chips. Bake 11-13 minutes or until brown  and allow to cool on sheet for 5 minutes.


Please try it and give me your response I would love to know what you think so I can change it and make it PERFECT!!!!
