Don’t know if they are supposed to come out flat, but mine did, I did underbake them because they spreaded out on cookie sheet, but I felt something was amissed with ingredients, not enough flour or maybe add baking powder, but they came out so flat, taste could of been more chocolate so next time maybe I would add more chips

These cookies are delicious. I bake all of my desserts in my Breville toaster oven. I used a slightly smaller scoop than recommended and they were the perfect size. I baked the first batch for 10 minutes and they burned, the next batch for 9 minutes and the bottoms were still dark, close to burned. The last few were baked for 8 minutes and they were soft & chewy. Just right. I’m thinking of trying them at 350º next time. Any thoughts?

These cookies sound amazing but what if you don’t have a mixer that has a paddle?
