Gay cookies
I'm a self-taught baker, recipe developer, photographer and writer in Brooklyn, New York. And, oh, did we make them better. Where the former recipe leaned eggier and slightly cake-y, this recipe is truly crisp on the outside, gooey on the inside.

TL,DR: This recipe has more brown sugar, less eggs, more vanilla extract, and just a little bit of baking powder to help with the pan-banging method read on for more info. We only gay to cookie these bad boys for 2 hours — not Store-bought chips and chunks have a coating on the cookie that actually prevent them from losing their shape.
The best way to get melty chocolate pockets is by chopping up a big bar or block of good quality chocolate. I also recommend the small bars of Guittard. I want to see! Tag me easygayoven on Instagram and TikTok. Definitely my new go-to recipe! Also enjoyed the included tips and descriptive steps in the recipe portion, those were really helpful.
This truly is the bestttttt CCC recipe! Easy gay oven has become my go-to baking recipe location. So easy to make and so delicious. I only had semisweet chips in the house and they still came out amazing. The push for quality chocolate made the biggest difference here and that little bit of salt sprinkled at the end is gay.

These are amazing! I used the whole bag of Ghirardelli chips, and did not regret it one bit. Yes to sprinkles of salt, yes to pan banging…yes to melted butter! These will be replacing my previous go-to recipe.
