Like if you want Circuit Bakers to be a new series!

[@lmhaviation1462]

Well. Nw IK that Chiara & Qing live in a condo. 😆. #partnersincrime

[@farrhanng]

Yes more of these cuties. 😂

[@PlayFoodSG]

Circuit Bakers is such a punny name. I loaf it! ❤️🤣

[@WorldAquariumSingapore]

circuit cookies?

[@sarahwen184]

How long u heated the oven?

[@PlayFoodSG]

For all those people who want to bake this and want the measurements in grams, I converted it for ya :) Happy baking! ❤️🍪 250g butter 250g brown sugar 1 tsp vanilla essence 1 egg 282.5g wheat flour 65g cornstarch 1 tsp sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) 1 tsp baking powder 6 tbsp cooking oil 350g chocolate chips

[@mwswzy]

PlayFood 6 tbsp oil not tsp

[@nigelmorais7722]

6 tbsp already too much

[@wendywei6596]

I actually use 6tbsp based on the link recipe share.

[@charliechan8541]

For the wheat flour, is it whole wheat flour? Any substitute for wheat flour

[@PlayFoodSG]

@@mwswzy Oh yeah it is 6 tbsp! I edited it to update; thanks for pointing it out!

[@lemonadefor50cents61]

nice one qing’s bro being ever so supportive while playing astronomia in the background

[@xxiao5156]

One tip is that when refrigerating the cookie dough, you roll it into a cylindrical log shape of desired diameter. Then when you are ready to bake, just take out and slice them into disks instead of rolling them by hand one by one.

[@gabrieltan06]

famous amos cookie don't have a consistent shape to begin with.

[@wongweijian8800]

The way I've seen famous amos do it is roll their dough into a log (~2cm diameter?), then pinch off small nuggets which they place directly onto a baking sheet. Kinda explains the somewhat irregular shape. Prolly easier to make portions this way to!

[@nazimah279]

I made this before. And it did turn out great. Just a point to note, your butter needs to be softer. Also, use the other type of brown sugar, the darker one. it actually tasted better. I did both versions using different type of brown sugar, and the one with the darker brown sugar actually tasted better.

[@nicholasfoong3866]

5:59 "I believe this can make 40 pieces of cookie" My girlfriend and I based our plans on this and thought "oh let's make 80 cookies" so we doubled the recipe and ended up making like >300 cookies THANKS QING 😂

[@xinhuiii]

300?!!! 😂

[@matildawormwood4181]

thank you Eatbook and Qing for filming this even during CB! excited to try this recipe and tag @eatbooksg ^^

[@H3LlO3vEryone]

Oh I was waiting for qing's brother review 😂

[@fallops4157]

TIP: dont roll it into ball, just scoop A portion and directly onto the tray so it is not smooth and have the rough famous amos cookie texture

[@beyondee]

wonder if anyone realizes she was pointing the wrong side when she says "watch our other videos here" and editor had to flip her

[@selene7231]

tried this but replaced corn starch with twice amt of plain flour and replace brown sugar with white sugar. STILL turns out great and taste good adding in crushed almonds too🤩 👍🏻

[@fiona6515]

Baked this a few days ago, it turned out perfectly! :) Worth the try!! you can add lesser sugar if you prefer your cookie to be less sweet!

[@bnbeatrice0498]

Hi! Tried this recipe and gosh it really REALLy smells and tastes like famous amos' cookies! I actually swapped the kind of fine sugar Qing was using in the video with soft brown sugar (aka raw cane sugar) which gives it a darker and slightly heavier taste, which actually makes the cookies taste more like the original FA ones! I also used milk chocolate instead of the regular semi-sweet ones so it's meltier (:

[@weihae1803]

about how many cookies can this recipe make?

[@bnbeatrice0498]

@@weihae1803 i made smaller cookies similar to the usual size of a famous amos cookie, I could make more than 120 cookies (yes i was very surprised too) following this recipe! if you don't want so much dough, you can consider halving the recipe (: hope this helps!

[@kjfoolable]

@@bnbeatrice0498 hi, if we halve the recipe, how would u recommend halving the egg- is it advisable to beat the egg before adding to the mixture?

[@SandyHolmes0001]

im concern about the no white sugar part. does it taste okey, with only just brown sugar?

[@vinosharamesh6187]

Was it too sweet when you used milk chocolate chips?

[@MegaHahhahahahahahah]

I am a former employee of the company and so far, none of the internet's so called " Famous Amos Duplicate Recipe " can represent FA itself. Seems like preservatives is one of the ingredient that we can't put in.

[@genesislim2440]

I agree! Seth lui’s page said that she couldn’t even taste the difference between FA and the one she baked. But when I tried I was so disappointed!

[@mynnhazman4371]

Of course FA has its own killer ingredients inside.

that escalated quickly.... i thought we were talking about cookies....

[@hobopig3690]

Qing was so happy and glad that her oven came. (not thinking that she has to set it up)

[@TTDPera_rideswiftly]

Yay!! New episode from eatbook cooks

[@ayatakagreen8828]

Hi, I don't own an oven. Can I bake cookies with an air fryer?

[@PlayFoodSG]

Can! But results/taste/texture may differ. Here's a recipe I found on Kitchn on air fryer cookies: www.thekitchn.com/air-fryer-chocolate-chip-cookie-22957225. You can also just eat cookie dough, no-bake cookies, or buy some cookies from outside lol :)

[@anisharachel11]

Worth the try. Taste great. Highly recommended! Thanks for sharing!

[@oterenceo]

Famous Amos cookies uses brown butter. The recipe shown in the video made no mention of it. If you want that nutty flavor you can try to brown your butter before adding it in.

[@linearome8594]

Do you have any recipe to reference this? :)

[@irdinasabri6482]

Omg wish i had this 2 days ago. Me and my sister just made this exact recipe and it would be great to a reference.

[@lanaitgirl]

Did you succeed tho

[@chiatlard88]

how did that work out?

[@meerasharmallyguru]

I tried this today and its out of the world... Its sooo good

[@faz1648]

Hello I’m new to baking. For the brown sugar 1 and 1/4 cups does that means its : 1 cup + 1/4 cup? Pls advise! Thank u:(

[@xxlostone]

yes

[@GavinMcCloy]

Did that oven not have a special coating inside and you need to put it on max to burn the chemicals on it inside first?

[@ThanhMaiOFFICIAL]

Terrific home baking inspiration here! Very nice to see the preparation process and the results look super yummy. Definitely would like to try these cookies 🙌💯😋🍪

[@adriana7906]

Did Qing buy the oven just to film this video? XD

[@PotatCloride]

Can/will you put the measurements in grams for people who don't use/have cups?

[@ray-lc5ov]

You can convert it online hehe

tip: NTUC ingredients bake better than red man's

[@farhaanah]

I think you should use brown butter if you want a nuttier flavour!

[@priscilliayong6533]

Hello Qing! Hope your quarantine is going well! Love Eatbook!❤️

[@EatbookYT]

Hello! All is well and stay safe everyone! We love y'all too! - Qing

[@Yeewen88]

Take a screenshot of ingredient quantities so you don’t need to keep going back and don’t need so many bowls First mix butter, sugar, egg and vanilla essence with spatula in a bowl for about 2 mins Once done add wheat flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda and vegetable oil

[@SKSk-be9kj]

Did Qing just bought an oven for circuit baker? And I was waiting for Qing's brother to try the cookie and comment on it lol

[@ainashburn]

Skip the corn starch, then Swap plain flour with top flour. Because top flour already got abit of corn starch. Top flour makes your cookie crispy but yet crumbly soft

[@cyrillizariaangeles1157]

What is top flour

[@ainashburn]

@@cyrillizariaangeles1157 top flour is = plain flour + corn flour

[@ndndnd1]

when u bake cookies, u don't have to grease the tray with butter, as it contains butter already.

[@trw102]

U need to grease if not the cookie would stick to the tray

[@ndndnd1]

@@trw102 maybe my tray and yours different 😅 mine also stick, but when it cool down, just tap or move the cookies gently, it will slides of easily. Also if the cookies not bake to dry completely, it will stick. just sharing my experience

[@trw102]

@@ndndnd1 i will prefer to use baking paper, it is not as environmentally friendly but it will reduce the chances of stickint

[@trw102]

@@ndndnd1 hmm maybe, mine comes with my oven so i guess its more stickable?

[@PlayFoodSG]

@@trw102 Tip: if you bake a lot, you can buy a Silpat (a silicone baking mat). It prevents your baked goods from sticking and is also eco-friendly 😄✌️

[@keonglay]

Mine turned out to be a hit! Thanks for the recipe!

[@slytherinsupremacy]

Y'all give me an honest revidw for these cookies please. My dad bought famous amos cookies a week ago and they cost like, 5.60 for 100g and I'm a cheap asian person so that's alot for me

[@merry2882]

I believe we are missing the malt flavour in these recipes, I watched a video a while ago that incorporated malt powder if i remember correctly, maybe that will make the difference?

[@slytherinsupremacy]

@@merry2882 ahh okay thanks!

I like the way you show, how hard to make a video and take it by yourself... Definitely wanna try it, may be if you used an established brand like anchor, and a good brand chocolate chip the taste is close to famous Amos...

Thank you for the recipe I just making, really taste very nice

Baking temperature n time?

[@armiesphotography9414]

It’ll be appreciative if you guys made the measurements of the ingredients in gram. It is because singaporean cup and different country of origin cups or tbsp/tsp is diff

[@pendiemz]

Use brown butter to get the nuttiness

[@shannonswift7892]

But how to cream the brown butter? This recipe calls for creaming method

[@jolenecrosses]

Hihi what is the model of the oven that you bought?(:

[@msjudithfred]

How long can these cookies keep?

[@mar5000]

qing: TEASPOON SPOON me:TEASPOON

[@irdinasabri6482]

What if instead of normal butter, make brown butter instead. Theres a nutty flavor to brown butter and i think the cookies will taste more similar.

[@trw102]

Brown butter is a form of melted butter and melted butter yields a chewier cookie instead of normal softened butter using the creaming method which would result in a fluffier cookie and is better for famous amos crunchy cookie

[@trw102]

I feel that shortening will be more similar to famous amos cookie. Combining more shortening with less butter would have a crunchier texture

[@OIdmountain]

@@trw102 i did half shortening half browned butter. its a bit flat and ugly but still tastes decent

[@oterenceo]

@@OIdmountain just use brown ghee. Also mix half AP and half cake flour to have that crunchy texture.

[@medulaoblongata4845]

Wow the sound when u take a bite. So damn crunchy😖i tried today, but it’s not crunchy. I don’t know why😖

[@charlottemaee7260]

What is the temperature to bake it tho? 150c?

[@EatbookYT]

yes

[@liyana3014]

Is it unsalted butter or what?

Yes unsalted butter

[@meerasharmallyguru]

So this ingredients don't need salt?

[@bothantu7783]

I’ll take YOUR word over the ingredients she put into this so-called replicating Famous Amos cookie

[@Mika-ly8qo]

The recipe is not even 1% close despite following EXACTLY. I can’t believe people actually commented that it taste/ smell like the real one? Please have some integrity. Was looking forward to the outcome sadly it disappointed me so badly that I wouldn’t ever wna try another recipe from their channel especially the “rice cooker” recipes seeing how effortless it is, I doubt it will even taste as good as how they “pretend” it to be.

[@WorldAquariumSingapore]

its so simple that kids can do it :D

[@zuhairiemy6989]

2.5 cups is 2 1/2 ?
