❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Crunchy Chocolate Chip Cookies
1. Why are my cookies not crunchy?
If your cookies are soft or chewy it might be because you underbaked them or used too much brown sugar. For crunchy cookies bake them until the edges are deeply golden and let them cool completely on the baking sheet. Using more granulated sugar than brown sugar also helps with crunch.
2. Can I use all white flour instead of whole wheat?
Yes you can use 2 cups of all purpose flour in place of the flour mixture. The cookies will still be crunchy but they will be a little less hearty.
3. How do I store these cookies to keep them crunchy?
Store them in an airtight container at room temperature. Do not put them in the refrigerator as that can make them soft. They will stay crunchy for up to a week.
4. Can I freeze the cookie dough?
Yes you can freeze the dough. Roll it into balls and place them on a baking sheet in the freezer until solid. Then transfer the frozen dough balls to a freezer bag. Bake from frozen adding 1 to 2 minutes to the baking time.
5. What kind of chocolate chips work best?
Semi sweet chocolate chips are great for a balanced flavor. You can also use milk chocolate or dark chocolate chips. Mini chips distribute more evenly but standard size chips work well too.
