Joshua Weissman Makes The PERFECT Chocolate Chip Cookie

[@davinaagawu1251]

I made Joshua's Levain copycat and the cookies were the best chocolate chip cookies ive ever made. I used about 80% semis sweet 20% milk chocolate and the bursts of milk chocolate in the cookie were amazing. I have an issue with overbeating my mixture so i made sure not to do so and the texture turned out perfectly. The cookies were crunchy on the outside warm and gooey on the inside. the reason i bring this up is the recipe is basically the exact same as the one listed above. I also toasted my pecans (if you dont enjoy the flavor of pecans in your cookies, toast the hell outta them. You'll get the crunch of the pecans without a lot of the pecan taste) i would also suggest chilling the dough (i froze mine without shaping them and they became incredibly crumbly so like just refrigerate them) I trust Joshua with my LIFE when it comes to recipes. His birria taco recipe is a fan fave amongst my family and friends :)

And you know what's the difference between melted and normal butter? And other thing, as the cookie balls are frozen, they have to be more time in the oven? Mine stay a bit melted on the bottom but good on the top

[@ghostgirl6970]

I like how this is so much more mellow than your usual chaotic energy and yet somehow, still chaotic energy

[@Me.Au__]

Yeah lmao

[@courtneycohan4368]

Love his levain chocolate chip cookie. These are similar but slightly different. For those that have made both which do you prefer?

[@vmarliere]

It´s so weird seeing Joshua so restrained and polite

[@Submersed24]

No camera edits

[@nancyholmquist2690]

Love both your cookbooks. thanks! I'm gonna make these baseballs for my kids snack this afternoon.

[@mintiestfreshness]

Seasons are getting cold and I could use a warm, chunky chocolate chip cookie with some hot cocoa.

[@SikfanKitchen]

There are two things I like baseball sized “cookies” AND “meatballs” !!! 😍

[@dorothyschoenfeldt8319]

Josh these look amazing ! TY for the video

[@bluetrapp9502]

It's my first time making cookies from scratch. I didn't add the Sea salt but did salted butter. I used 3 cups all purpose flour with no cake flour. I don't have a hand mixer so I absolutely went to town trying to whip the dough by hand. Tried to follow it as closely as possible. They're still cooling so not sure about taste but so far they've spread a lot more than the ones in the video. More baking soda? Or is the best I can do without a mixer?

[@nataliemscrzysxycoolharris]

I’m loving this!

[@MikeJSyndrome]

Will be interested to try these, I’ve made Stella Park’s Levain knockoffs and want to compare the two

[@Submersed24]

Funny face is a must try

[@aedhcnef6083]

Thank you. I’m about to make these. Was looking for a recipe. Can you all overlay the measurement amount on the screen for each ingredient? For future videos.

[@torislough5183]

We have your book! Love it so much! Where can I find the nutrition facts?

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

Thank you for the video!

[@GoldenDumpling]

Hi Josh, I can't eat nuts, what do you think about substituting with Fritos corn chips instead? They should in theory provide enough scaffolding to keep the cookie from going flat. Also, why is the recipe not posted to the Food52 site, like usual?

[@mitcharendt2253]

Dried fruit could work

[@iluvthekjv1611]

maybe he wants you to buy his cookbook.

[@shllybkwrm]

The recipe is in his new cookbook so I'm not sure if they can print it

[@food52]

check out the description! :)

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

Potato chips might work great!

[@harutran4703]

Has anyone made these?? If so, please let me know your review! I only have a toaster oven which means baking them would take longer but they look so good I just wanna know if it's worth haha

[@snoopypp7391]

I ve already try it and it turn out greatttttt.I also reduce the amount of sugar 50% ,each dough weight 85 g and bake at 390 f

[@RZAmo-ik9eu]

tbh this is the best chocolate chip w nuts recipe 🥹

[@luisnovelo8047]

Levain Bakery cookies!

[@joshuagambrell9667]

No vanilla extract?

[@adedow1333]

No sin to add it! Go for it!

[@aispryn]

Sometimes when creators feel it doesn’t make a difference or can’t taste the vanilla/difference, they don’t add it cause it’s a waste and negligible. Saves you some money too

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

Vanilla would be in any cookie I made unless there was almond or orange or lemon instead

[@RachelDavis705]

I'm a big texture person so I'm intrigued

[@navin_prasad]

So basically he recreated from his Levain Chocolate Chip Cookies video a couple of years ago

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

Rly need to freeze these before baking 90 min freezer then bake at 400 for 22min

[@PlantNative]

Save that dust. Mmmmm. Nice to see him here!

[@Paloulaw]

I made the cookies and they went flat, Also the sugar didn't dissolve although I beat it FOREVER with the butter. Any suggestions why all of this happened? THX!

[@sarahsmith4842]

The same thing happened to me. I tried really hard to do it all right. Not sure where I went wrong

[@harry_davies]

Same here 😢

[@PoeticAmmunition.]

Did u refrigerate before baking

[@christopherdowns2430]

Well that is lavain bakery cookies and they are amazing

[@AnnGregory-larson]

This looks like a Levant cookie from NYC

[@chassanaly]

Can you please make videos on how to make similar cookies as SCOOP ME A COOKIE recipes? Laura Petit's cookie recipes. They're georgous !!!! Please please please ❤❤❤ As well as your version of levain bakery cookies ❤❤❤ Thank you Dear 😊❤

[@chassanaly]

Please do so ❤

[@alexisstockard3078]

[@nertylle2945]

I miss the calmer Joshua Weissman

[@fatimae19]

Can food52 please upload the recipe for this?

[@food52]

check the description!

[@fatimae19]

Thank you so much 😋

[@apl2606]

And here I am snacking on tomatos with salt while I am watching this.

[@Koomsoho]

Hell yeah brother

[@melaniemonroe5881]

Those look DELICIOUS! Instead of 2 and 4, why not 3 on each pan🤔

[@weekdaycycling]

Don’t you need to chill the cookie dough in the fridge for some time before baking it?

[@cathysandberg7557]

I looked for the recipe and could not find it ?

[@lpeper1964]

Check the transcript.

[@cathysandberg7557]

@@lpeper1964 I just checked the transcripts recipe was not there no measurements on how much of anything goes into these cookies . That's all right I enjoyed the video

[@RachelDavis705]

He wants you to buy his book

[@food52]

check the description!

[@chloeely9962]

i'm from UK and im confused by cake flour

[@phoenixmysticised88]

Give me Erin, 😱😱Thanks 🙏🙏

[@peaceforislambytuhin]

good

[@Jay-hy8rt]

The recipe doesn't have nearly enough flour for the amount of butter and sugar. They turn into sheet cake

[@antonellamasella2300]

Looking for the recipe Food52…

[@food52]

it's in the description!

[@suzyelbader3936]

♥️♥️♥️

[@CassBlast5]

For me there is no perfect chocolate chip cookie unless at least half of the butter is browned

[@ibrahimsaad2250]

I believe there is unneeded steps in this video unlike ur previous one

[@theonlyteddybare]

350?

[@janicekennedy2047]

I bet these taste fantastic, but the thickness of it is to cakey for me. I think I’d rather have a much thinner cookie.

[@Narut0luva12]

No papas kiss for you then.

[@Aamilahpeso]

Came out terrible I make cookies all the time..I think it was the cake flour..cookies came out cakey I think I might try some different butter because as soon as I added the sugar, it gave me that wet consistency so you can kind of tell if it’s a good batch or not then, once I added, the flower never got it was more wet than cookie dough, so I’m not sure what happened, but the cookie came out real cake. It didn’t come out like a cookie.

[@janetbex7526]

All cookies should contain nuts!

[@printmeacoupon7974]

This is too slow. It like old Food Network PBS sloooow.

[@jhenniceamorrow5936]

Josh, as always you are fun, informative and an awesome teacher. This time, were you nervous? Well, love the recipe and awaiting the delivery of your recipe!

[@devinwilliams7110]

Why do my cookies spread out i followed it to a T

[@lindawright9797]

What the heck is cake flour

[@davids8267]

I was going to make this for my family. Then they reminded me what assholes they were. So this recipe will stay in the internet.

[@snoopaka]

Cleaned up your language this one. Nice

[@mrs.rabbit621]

peCAN, not peCON. 😂

[@iluvthekjv1611]

pe-CON here, 😊

[@adedow1333]

There are, entertainingly, 4 different and distinct way to pronounce pecans. And they're all right. We all know what we mean, so there is no need to fight. The point of speaking is communicating, so having achieved that, there isn't any point belabouring it.

[@iluvthekjv1611]

​@@adedow1333o, my, don't take life or youtube so seriously! no one is "fighting" here, at least i'm not. i was just innocently weighing in on my pronunciation.

[@KristiTalk]

They grow here in Texas, so pa-CON. Josh is in Texas. 😁

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

Pee can Yuppers Get over it lol

[@Rodrigobktwo]

It's not look like 335gr of butter in the video... For me is way more, and where's the logic, 335gr of butter nd 300gr of flour? Of course they will spread... I make like the recepie, scoop one smaller cookie and now I'll wait in the freezer... Let's see

[@jetx2710]

Looks under bake....

[@ashlypannell1812]

i really liked this video was more relaxing version of your videos and i didnt get lost cuz the speed and sound effects 😝 … definatelly making these cookies

[@leehamilton48]

I'm allergic to pecans.... so none for me

[@CookbooksonRepeat]

Just leave them out?

[@mitcharendt2253]

Dried fruit?

[@madagrinde]

Sad to see Food52 host a well known plagiarizer.

[@jasaland]

Yeah, I'm disappointed that they added this dude. He's got his own channel which I can avoid watching. Now I'm forced to start watching the video to dislike.

[@aispryn]

What happened?

[@TheDreeemr]

Sorry too much talking for me! They look OK. Nothing special. If you leave out the pecans, do you add more chocolate? 🤔🤔🤔

[@aispryn]

Without the pecans they might be more flat but I recommend substituting them with other nuts unless you don’t mind a flatter cookie.

[@MaxRabl]

🤨 What a waste of time
