Famous Jacques Torres’ Chocolate Chip Cookie

Yes, I definetely have a lot of to-bake on my list after my week long holiday. And I dunno how to find time to bake all of them. I have bookmarked a lot of cookie recipes but haven decided which to try first as I always can't make up my mind. A huge fan of cookie and hubby likes to have them with his coffee so I try to make them at least every few weeks? 

So why do I choose this to bake today? I saw someone posted in FB after trying is recipe, which happens to be 1 of my 'KIV' cookie recipe and the way she posted the pic about the end product and also her comments after eating... I simp ly can't just sit on the recipe. 

I went to prepare the dough as it needs to be refrigerated at least overnight or 72hours for better results. But looking at the dough, I couldn't resist and convince myself I need to try with and without refrigerating them. So there it goes, 1st tray of cookie into the oven. The smell is heavenly and I couldn't resist and bring out my dough in the fridge, and in goes Tray #2! I need to stop myself from sending more trays or I would have no more left for tml to bake. Hahaha~ 

So my review:
Without fridging the dough overnight - Crispy, sweetness just nice and taste yummy.
With fridging overnight - Crispy, slightly sweeter but have a distinctive aroma that is so fragrance that the first one doesn't have. Thumbs up!! Definitely a keeper for my family... 

Without the kosher salt for this batch, I substitute with normal sea salt. I will definitely spend the $$ to get kosher salt to bake them again...
