Temperature Control: The Basics
Soft-baked cookies are not just a matter of chance, they require a delicate balance of heat and time.
Here are some general guidelines to get you started:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) or 350°F (180°C) for a more delicate touch.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the edges start to set.
- Don't open the oven door, it's like peeking at the cookie's innermost thoughts.
- Rotate the cookie sheet for even cooking, or just pretend to and hope for the best.
