Good Product: BC Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix

So I tried the Betty Crocker GF cookies from the box this week that I picked up at a regular grocery store.  Big thumbs up!  Here's the edits I made:

  • Mix up the dough as the box says
  • Refrigerate dough overnight (Yes, I do this because I like to make one pan at a time with my cookies so we can eat them fresh and warm.  I think that putting them in the fridge overnight really helped because the ones I cooked right after mixing the dough were not as good as the overnight batch).
  • Taking the dough right from the fridge, spoon it on the pan
  • Cook for 9 minutes on 350 degrees (my oven of course, yours may vary)
  • Pull cookies out and use the spatula to scrape them off the pan carefully, but!...
  • Leave the cookies on the pan to cool and finish cooking in the middle on the hot cookie sheet  (The recipe tells you to let the cookie sheet cool completely between batches anyway
  • Enjoy while still slightly warm. 
This method seemed to give me the best, most solid and puffy cookie.  Scraping them and then letting them cool kept them from sticking so bad to the pan.  If I just left them to cool straight from the oven then they glued themselves to the pan and they fell apart trying to get them off.

Great cookies!  Only a very small difference in texture from regular wheat flour cookies.
