This is the cookie your mama warned you about. It is sunshine on a cloudy day… it is nostalgia wrapped between fluffy goodness… and beware, it weighs 6oz and is NOT a low calorie food… but oh my word is it good.
The NY Levain Bakery is known for their HUGE cakelike cookies. Obviously being a sugar lover and cookie lover, you know I had to try them out. The first time I tried them, I did not heed the warnings that said “don’t skip the cake flour” and I was so sad. They were good, but were they anything to write home about… well yes, but they were not NY Levain Cookies! So onward I trudged and when you make them exactly how the recipes calls… the angels sing (or is that the bathroom scale screaming?)
I’ve been notified that this is Joshua Wiessman’s recipe-esque… Or at least close! So if you want to see the video of him and Babish going to NY and trying the cookie… go here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYH1Z7TUSEI

Are these soft and chewy cookies, or more cake-like?
They are definitely cake-like! Now, I say that and I’ll tell you I am generally a chewy cooker lover… but these are naughty-good!
