Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwiches

'Secret' chocolate chip cookies
Jacques Torres
Makes about 26 giant cookies

INGREDIENTS
1 pound butter
13 ounces sugar
1 pound light brown sugar
4 eggs
14 ounces King Arthur pastry flour
14 ounces King Arthur bread flour
1/2 ounce salt
Less than 1/2 ounce baking powder
Less than 1/2 ounce baking soda
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 pounds Jacques Torres 60% cocoa content dark chocolate, cut in small pieces

DIRECTIONS

Preheat convection oven to 325 degrees. Using a stand mixer fitted with paddle, cream together the butter, sugar and brown sugar until it reaches a light and creamy texture. Add the eggs, one at a time. When mixed, turn the mixer to slow speed and add the rest of the ingredients. When the mixture is thoroughly combined, bake on a parchment paper-lined sheet pan for about 14 minutes (light brown, a little underbaked).

TIP

Jacques does not use cups and teaspoons so he suggests starting with the weights if you need to convert the recipe. His secret is in the butter, flour and chocolate ingredients.

The hosts are so loud and annoying I have no idea what Jacques is saying. They repeat everything he says and keep talking over him.

they are so rude to him.. he deserves people that will actually respect and appreciate him rather than people who just want the food-___-
