4 Levels of Chocolate Chip Cookies: Amateur to Food Scientist | Epicurious
Embed
- Published on Sep 17, 2018
- It doesn't get much more classic than chocolate chip cookies. We challenged chefs of three different levels - an amateur, a home cook and a professional chef - to make their versions of the chocolate chip cookie. And then we brought in a food scientist to review their work. Which cookie was the best?

4 Levels of Chocolate Chip Cookies: Amateur to Food Scientist | Epicurious 
Entertainment
Y IS THIS MY 4th TIME WATCHING THIS?!!!
We want a really *THICC* cookie
I love BIG FATTY COOKIES 😆😜🤓
the part about moisture is complete rubbish. How does a penny compensate for moisture with weight? moisture absorbed in sugar, makes it weigh more. scales don't make a difference
0:32 that sound is so satisfying
why would i want my cookies to taste smoky?
I grew up with poorly made cookies, meaning they were huge and flat, and gradually went from crispy to super soft in the middle. These didn’t look good to me.
You know it's good when you can't talk
As soon as the level 3 cook said she wanted to make the cookies more savoury... straight up I was like nopppppeee. That ain’t okay at all, that’s a sin in itself.
I hate how the home cooks always act like there better than everyone. Like sit down patric you cook for your disapproval wife, not for a 5 star restaurant
I swear these lvl 3 chefs are too extra. Its always lvl 2 that seems to make the best looking grub
Lorenzo is the best on this show. His recipes always look the best imo, they're simple and look great. I'd rather have his cookie than the level 3 cookie.
o
I don't care who makes it, as long as it's not oatmeal raisin I'm eating it
i live for lorenzo's enthusiasm😂
I will just buy mah cookieh.
I want to see the level 4 cook make something
This makes me want to go and make chocolate chip cookies now
Number 2 won
Havent watched it yet but if level 1 just gets a roll of toll house ima die laughing
Ellena = the one who dated Stefan Salvatore as a human and Damon Salvatore as a vampire
Lorenzo = long lost best friend of Damon Salvatore
Penny = engaged to Matt Donovan before death........
Wow... too much of vampire diaries...😂😂😂😂😂
*But DOES*
*SANTA*
APPROVE
Lorenzo's attitude sucks
I'm sorry, you have to EARN the right to be called a CHEF. Cooking meals for you kids nightly doesn't qualify you to be called a chef. Naivety and lack of common sense at its finest.
Why didn’t they get a professional grandma in there? Grandma got the best cookies
SMOKE BUTTER?!
Lorenzo is the best!
Honestly they all look pretty bad. They all seem real dang over cooked. Not to mention I can not stand the type of cookies the pro made. Ive always had a strong dislike for that kind of chewy cookie.
The only cookie for me is the kind that the home cook made but less time in the oven and a little time on the table to harden up a little but still have a perfect chewiness.
You have had that “amateur” cook for so long that I think that she is a pro now 😂
I'm just here to steal the pro chef's recipe.
THICC
Who smokes their food? Since when was this a thing????
Alina is a baddie no cap
To being funny but the mans one is way better because no one just has a vanilla bean in their house 😂
please continue this series!!! I love it!
we want more Lorenzo
Pennys looks the worst to me
The pro chef is literally changing the recipe
"but if you add a little bit of sea salt..
_or any kind of salt.."_
*_brings out the bath salts_*
I want to order 10 creates of Penny's cookies. They look so delicious.
3:44 nice chocolate chip cookies you got there
Time to make level 1 cookies : 45 minutes
Time to make level 3 cookies : 2 DAYS!!!
I am a kid and I And an Expert I’d say..
And here I am:
Eating store bought cookies
I don’t care if the cookie is professionally baked I just want a coooookiee
As a just for fun chief, I eyeball all my ingredients. I'm not a real chief, cookies are the only thing I can bake from scratch. I also like experimenting with different flavors. But they taste good, and people I know like them.
I think Lorenzo is the best because cooking makes him truly happy.
Who in hell wants a thick cookie?
4:40 that ain't a cookie that's a pastry
I like my chocolate chip cookies with barely any chocolate chips
Am i the only one who like cookies gooey
I hate how Alina just doesnt care about the precision of the ingredients
I WANT TO SEE LEVEL 4 COOK PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!
All those cookies seem over cooked and/or crunchy. I prefer moist cookies with a chewy consistency like Subway’s cookies.
To me Lorenzos are the only ones that actually look like chocolate chip cookies but whatever floats your boat I guess.......... 🍪
Where can i find level three cookie recipe
penny low key KILLED ME LMFAOOOO "i make a good cookie" "would be good with a glass of bourbon"
I pretty sure that food scientist just really liked the level 3 chef.
Leronzo wins
Lorenzo's cookies look the best
When watching this all I can think about is buzz feeds “perfect cookie” and how much better it looked 😍
Am I the only one wondering why they don't give us the actual amounts for the recipes that they used.
I need that smoker for... reasons.
More videos like this would be awesome. Like baked bread for sandwiches or toast.
girls out here smoking salt yo
This Lorenzo is so annoying. You are not a pro, stop behave like one.
Lenzos looked the best and pennys was more a store cookie
They all made like crispy cookies... i prefer soft cookies tbh
Where’s grandma level?
Does anyone else like chocolate chip cookies without the chocolate?
"as a professional chef we use weight instead of volume for measurements"
*adds a tsp of salt to the mixture*
Tamás Simon Europeans have been using weight (even me, who is the most unprofessional chef you can think of 😂)
Regardless of the level of their expertise they all still had fun making the cookies & put passion into it and that's all that matters
4:39 oh my that's what i like to hear
That level 3 chefs cookie isnt a cookie to me. Its so thick and cakey. A chocolate chip cookie is crispy on the outside and warm and soft on the outside. But there neededs to be a balance between crispy and soft. That why they should be thin.
Where do I get Penny's recipe!?!?!
why does the food scientist have the stick though?
Lorenzo laughs like a mad scientist I love it.
Chocolate chip cookies should never be crunchy, change my mind
inquisitor I feel you, I don’t think anyone likes raw unless it’s cold, but those cookies that you can barley pick up because they’ll fall apart are the best ones
I like chewy, but not raw on the inside. But crunchy and cakey are two other textures that one may prefer.
The home cooks always act like they know everything lmao
Penny killed it 🔥🔥
Smokes her butter so she can stop the video, go for a quick poop, and pop off for a cigarette
level 1 was for sure the toll house recipe
could we get those recipes?!
PLEAAASSSE HAVE SOMEONE BLIND-TASTE ALL THE FOOD!!!! Especially here with cookies that don't need to be served fresh to be enjoyed
NexT We SMOkE ThE ChIlDreN
Oof, I'm surprised. I don't like smoked flavor. Most delicious way to replace this would be to brown the butter before adding it to the recipe. Much faster as well.
Who tf uses high butter in there cookie
Smoke the butter with Weed :)
Hahaaahaaaa my cookies look like the experts! And i melt my butter as well😎
Summary: *yolk is from chicken*
Who knew...
Pls give us the full recipe of chef penny.. I want to it at home.. Pls..
She hitlered the butter
I aspire to be Penny, with Lorenzo's smile and Elina's Humbleness ❤
Adding smoke adds a layer of pretentiousness.
5:05 she thicc
It's 12:43 am and I'm still hungry. Thanks Epicurious.
She is a thick cookie
Level 2 is always the best one
the best ones are like the thin-ish chewy pale kinda tan cookies, if u know u know
Where is she pointing at there rly isnt anything on the board
