• In the great cookie debate, there are chewy people and there are crispy people. But when it comes to peanut butter cookies, it seems that the chewy lovers are always forced to settle for an "inferior" crispy version. We wanted to change that. Here's what we discovered:.
• Test Kitchen Discoveries.
• * Switching from shortening to butter made the task of creating a chewy cookie more difficult, but the superior flavor was worth the complication.
• * Thanks to hydrogenated oils used in manufacturing, processed peanut butter produced a chewier cookie than natural peanut butter.
• * The chewiest recipes we encountered were sweetened with honey, but we found the flavor overbearing. To retain the moisture of the honey without sacrificing flavor, we used light corn syrup instead.
• * We cut back on the egg white in our recipe and added more peanut butter to make up for the loss of moisture.
• * Chopped peanuts on top of the cookies added even more peanut flavor.
• * Baking soda reacted quickly with the acidic ingredients in the dough to create bubbles that expanded in the heat of the oven. This caused the cookies to puff up and deflate before their structure had time to set, leaving the centers soft and chewy.
• * We used melted butter instead of creamed butter to ensure that the cookies weren't too cakey.
