Nonsense. The best cookies in the world are buttery shortbread.

No such thing as 'soft cookies', only impatient fatties.

>>21458565
Nobody eating cookies has any right to call someone else a fatty but nice try rotundo

Quoi?
>>21458565
Cookies can absolutely be soft.
>>21458533 (OP)
I like chewy ones. Of the four main cookie textures I can think of (soft, snappy, crumbly and chewy), I strongly prefer chewy. If brownies or bar cookies count, I guess cakey/fudgy exist, too.

>>21458533 (OP)
correct

>>21458565
The soft stage is a special time that you only have access to if you make your own cookies at home. Ultra-gooey, not suitable for the whole batch which will firm up as it cools but a supremely soft texture. You can't experience that with your storebought ones so I get why you're mad.

i ate a cookie once

soft cookies > crispy cookies that crumble easily > storebought hardtack cookies

>>21458652
You can get soft ones storebought they just come 5 dollars for a bag of 8

They modify the recipe, not underbake them. That is the point of distinguishuing a difference between actual soft-baked and a storebought cookie labelled as such. It's not a technique, but a different recipe with different ingredients, and therefore different flavor and textures.

No anon, bake cookies yourself and see the difference. What I am referring to is a stage right after baking that cookies are in, even if after cooling they firm up to something you'd just call a regular cookie. It's a fresh-out-of-the-oven smell, taste, and feel. Cookies that are soft at room temp are a different thing and not what I'm referring to.

>>21458533 (OP)
Contrast in food is best. I like to make my cookies with a crispy edge, and a gooey softer center.

>>21458792
Was it good, anon?

>>21459054
It was an Oreo so no.

>>21458986
