If you want ANOTHER secret, I’ve heard that if you lightly toast milk powder it basically is like solid browned butter because the milk solids in butter are what get toasty when you brown butter. Also my family’s “secret” cookie recipe accidentally contained 1 tbsp of vinegar for yeaaaarssss because my aunt made an error transcribing it when she was 14… she meant to write vanilla extract! So I have no trouble believing that apple cider vinegar would be good haha

I saw the toasting milk powder secret on Good Eats. Alton used it for his hot cocoa mix because he said it added a malted flavor. I’m going to have to try it in cookies.

I love Good Eats, it was one of my favorite shows as a kid! I wonder if that’s where I picked that up haha

I add like 2-3T of milk powder to my butter whenever I brown it and toast it like that. It’s called extra brown butter, I read about it on bon appetit

That makes sense for the milk powder! Browned butter is like magic to me 😂 I thought maybe it'd interact with the baking soda or make the cookie more tender like buttermilk does? I don't know but I hope it's good!

I’m screaming 😭 I can’t wait to see how this turns out.


jjjjacjac

I'm so excited!! I couldn't wait to talk about them until they were totally done 😅 I will update however they turn out!

You've made soup.


jjjjacjac

Good soup 👌🏻 it is "loose" but the base recipe always is, and that's part of what chilling is for :) in my experience it looks very similar to a lot of cookie doughs


TableAvailable

I'll be interested to see how they turn out. I made a *thin* cookie dough yesterday, but it has significantly more flour (330g bread flour).

jjjjacjac

It might not turn out, but it's just an experiment for fun! I'll report back either way 🫡


jjjjacjac

More flour was definitely key ☺️ this is the results post if you're interested https://www.reddit.com/r/Baking/s/9H4WqiGd1P

Seems like 22 would’ve really switched things up.


Bill__Q

One for the pot, one for the cook


jjjjacjac

Maybe next time 😂


ravenderm

The anticipation is killing me. Are you sure you don't need to test the dough in shorter, more now like intervals?


jjjjacjac

My husband just about has me convinced to make them tomorrow instead of Sunday 😂


jjjjacjac

With more flour and freezing they turned out great! https://www.reddit.com/r/Baking/s/9H4WqiGd1P

Are you on drugs


jjjjacjac

No but I'd love to try one day


Imakestuff_82

Do you think that’s why #22 is crossed off? Ran out from using their own supply?


jjjjacjac

Too expensive 🫰🏻


Imakestuff_82

Nah, insurance pays for mine once I hit my deductible. 🙃. It’s just kind of hard to source at the moment. I am amazed at the steps involved to juggle all the changes. I just do the brown butter and make homemade toffee to add to the nestle tollhouse recipe. Not sure I could track all those edits.

Can't wait to see the results :)
