  • A great recipe from a New York department store that grossly overcharged for the recipe, so the disgruntled customer sent it to all her friends and now I pass it onto you!

    • 40 oz - is this right?

    • I assume this must be 4 oz

    • Definately must be 4oz - cos that's what I used when I made these unbelievable cookies -
      which are everything a good cookie should be crispy on the outside and soft and mouthwatering on the inside. Watch out though cos if you leave them in the oven for a second too long they go hard so make sure you keep an eye on them

    • What did you do - and did it work?

      by carolsavage on Thu Sep 17 2009   reply to this comment

    • it asks for 5oz sugar twice, is this right or should it be just the once?

    • it doesnt say when to add the egg, we just did it before the dry ingredients - seems to work

    • There are 2 lots of sugar - brown and caster sugar

      by carolsavage on Mon Sep 28 2009   reply to this comment

    • i found that 10oz of sugar was too much sweetness. also excuse my ignorance but what is cream the butter?

      by bailes_30 on Wed Sep 30 2009   reply to this comment

    • When you cream the butter & sugar, do you cream both the caster and brown sugar at this stage ? Also, what type of brown sugar is best?

      by Mum4ever on Fri Nov 6 2009   reply to this comment

    • Yes i "Cream" or beat together the butter with both the sugars - i like the quantity provide in the recipe which is probably cos i have a real sweet tooth and i sue any brown sugar - whatever is in the store - usually soft light brown sugar
