Hi,
I love your site!!!
I was looking at your recipe for Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookies and i noticed the temp for the oven. You said to turn it to 425 and when you put the cookies in, turn it down to 375. I also read your recipe for Killer Chocolate Chip Cookies you said to leave it at 350. What is the difference between having a high temp and then turning it down vs. keeping it at 350? I make chocolate chip cookies all the time but mine look too light without the golden brown edges. If i leave them in the over for more than 10 minutes, they get too dry inside and they are not moist.
I also put the cookies on the middle rack in the oven. i also tried putting the cookies on a higher rack but they were still the same.
I love the look at the Caramel cookies!!!!
Thanks,
Brittany
