Giant Levain Bakery Chocolate Chip Cookies By June | Delish 

Could we get the recipe in metric?

@Gabas Elamin It depends on if you want a cookie that is more cake like or something that is tough to chew on.

Thank you for the recipe! I made it last week and not only did it turned out gorgeous, it also tasted soooooo good! However I've never had Levain cookie so I don't know if it tastes similar or not

Should I bake cookies with the oven heated from the top or the bottom?

Are you using salted or unsalted butter?

190°C 😉

Thanks for doing everything else!!! Very helpful

Thanks you so much for this. Metric and scale user really thanks you !

Do you think women usually fake high pitched voices.....?

@@MsRaconteur see that comma in between fake and high pitched? That separates the two adjectives from the word "voice".

Caitlin ???? You’re still claiming that women put on “fake, high pitched” voices. Which is weird af and highkey misogynistic. Why do y’all always find weird reasons to criticize women?

@@MsRaconteur my comment was not misogynistic. Women feel like they have to portray themselves a particular way in media, such as speaking in a high pitched voice. I was commending her for not falling into it. There's a reason why female reporters speak with a lower pitch, because they're doing a job that used to be dominated by men, so they are not expected to make their voice higher than normal.

@@caitlin1639 babe...it's her voice. work on your internalized misogyny. or go find a man to use as a punching bag instead.

Did you use the oven fan or just the regular oven?

Liz N. Although this recipe is great but lazy people like me won’t give that much of efforts on baking cookies! So I followed this video for my cookie recipe: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_npIAVPJZC4.html

Just tried today! And yes, I am worried too. My dough is still chilling :)

@@bym1guez how was it? Was it good?

Royce yaaaaas!!! So worth it. I was glad to save some dough in the freezer because they weee best when newly baked.

Please the butter in grams?

This recipe is better than Joshua’s and I’m a huge fan of his

What’s the oven temperature and how long?

Mine didn’t stick together once I took them out of the oven :( dont know why!!!!

Did yours end up dry?

​@@miyanashim hi! i followed the exact temp as instructed (190-200 C) for around 20-25 mins. I checked it every few minutes after 20 mins of baking to avoid overcooking it :)

​ @Kirsten Erica Tequillo not at all! mine was perfect for my liking hehe :)

@Baker81 Baker Hi, did you bake the 4.5oz cookie for 26 minutes?

@@65lica I baked them for 18 minutes :)

How many did u make with that 4.5 oz measurement?

Do you know what is the difference if I only use all purpose flour instead of cake flour?

which ones work better? cold or melted butter? :3

It really is.

The thing abt cookies are preference, and I've noticed that American cookies tend to be chewy, fudgy, gooey type, wherein in my country (Malaysia), we love our cookies crispy and crunchy. For a lot of us, if it's chewy or dense, they'll think we baked it wrong 😂😂😂 I can definitely vouch this for my grandparents and parent's generation but I know my parents don't mind any cookie textures

Over share??? I love that... here goes...June I love you and your magic graceful hands, your careful testing and weighing, your way around spices, and that magical grin when you get a great product!! you have dramatically improved my approach to stews, garbanzo beans, all kinds of pancakes, and the use of spices! And my cast iron skillet. And I can really tell you are very pro. And I am sure that the French bakery that is popular in NYC knows their chops, but do they know their chips, I ask? ... now I have developed Chocolate Chip Cookies (ccc) for my kids and my approach is layers of flavor, not just wheat and sugar and chips.... May I share, even though you have not only far more talent but also years of sensory testing and experience, married into intuitive technique? I always replace 1/3-2/3 of the flour in choc chip cookies with ...oatmeal! I love the combination of chocolate chip and oatmeal flavor and I get that little kick of fiber which is so helpful with digesting sugar and flour. This change made me wonder... what else could you add? ... over time we experimented with several ingredients and found them good -fresh coconut, maybe sesame seeds, pecans with the walnuts... or both with almonds or nut butter, or hemp hearts... I don’t like dried fruit in ccc.. (other than coconut). I am not sure you could get a melty interior with all of that stuff, but it does provide Amazing Flavor & vegetarian protein to balance the insulin rush. (I will never be able to give up butter in this lifetime - part of what I love about you June💕... so no vegan options from me.) in fact I have used all of these ingredients in pancakes with real Canadian or Vermont maple syrup and my daughters could not resist them, little natural no-meat eaters that they were when they were in grade school. So, I will try this recipe midwinter and see if I like them, but plain flour and chocolate chips? I bet I’m going to have to add some stuff... (maybe pumpkin?) Now June, I must say that if you did not taste the vanilla either because you were using inferior vanilla (stored too long? Watered?) or you were not using enough. Based on other comments, I wonder if you do not like vanilla? In the right decadent infusion with excellent spirits, it really pops! Maybe try some real imported Mexican Vanilla (TJs is not quite there but is enough for some). Anyway, you know you’ve got a good combination rich ccc flavors when your earnest little 5 year old looks up at you and says, “mommy, it’s just not quite rich enough... did you add the pecans and vanilla? Could we try....? That, my dear June, is, I suspect, the reason you don’t really like chocolate chips. They need to have a base. (Our grade school asked us to make muffins for snacks and asked is to add pumpkin to the choc chip recipe for added vitamins. And they were incredible! So, chocolate chips need additions. First, get the free trade kind- they are at least 10 times better than the more commercial ones... and then add some plant protein and a richness base..maybe cut the sugar in half... This makes me think.. sometimes when driving south out of the San Francisco Bay Area, we stop for ice cream in Gilroy, the Garlic Capital. Now you wouldn’t think it, but that strong and spicy taste with sugar and cream gives ice cream another layer. Kind of like the chocolate in a good Mole sauce. I wonder if garlic preprocessed with sugar might be a good counterpoint to chocolate chips. Hmmmmm... thanks for exciting our senses. 🍪

whats the verdict???

Hi Muriel, did you replace walnut with more chocolate chips? Thanks

Feels like we just won the lottery!!

@@thank9stars Mine's chilling in the freezer right now! I am really hoping this is it! It was a bit more difficult for a newbie baker like me!

I want to try these tho this is the first time I’ve heard of them! We don’t like walnuts though so I think I will sub toasted pecans

@@sravantiii nobody wants to eat ur shitty cookies

Use swerve. It's a 1 to 1 sugar replacement

Yt Yt same

There is no need to feel that way. I have reduced my intake too without any sugar free substitutes . Try to find other foods that make you happy and learn to enjoy it.

I make “cookies” out of bananas, oats, and walnuts. That’s it, three ingredients. The banana essentially becomes the batter. Really nice with a cup of plain black coffee.

How abput coconut sugar? It has a way below glycemic index that refinec sugar.

Had to google what lamingtons were, they look so soft and spongey!

They're divine! Quintessential Aussie icon!

Yes to Lamingtons!

you mean the NZ treat Lamington that the aussies copied? but otherwise sure...

I'm from Romania and I love Lamingtons😍 deliciousness!

You are a weirdo. Like me! LOUD AND PROUD :)

Hend J Which substitute did you find? i’m trying to do these myself but i can’t find any cake flour!

@@carold3544 for 1 cup of all purpose flour, remove 2 tbsps and replace with 2 tbsps of cornstarch. So for this recipe, replace 2.5 tbsp of AP flour with 2.5 tbsp of cornstarch.
