# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • That moment you bite through a white chocolate chip and hit a chunk of chocolate cookie is pure bliss
  • They stay soft for days if you can resist eating them all in one sitting
02 -
  • Overbaked cookies with crushed Oreos become disappointingly hard since the cookie pieces get too crisp
  • Room temperature dough spreads more evenly, cold dough from the fridge gives taller thicker cookies
03 -
  • Chill the dough for 30 minutes if your kitchen runs warm, this prevents cookies from spreading too thin
  • Rotate the baking sheets halfway through baking for even browning
