Hello all,
I have been on a mission to track down a recipe for a chocolate chip cookie from my youth. Back in the 70-80s in Northwest Indiana, we had a Glen Park Bakery. They sold little, white chocolate chip cookies that had the most peculiar characteristics:
- Small size
- White in appearance with chocolate chips
- They were powdery and would crumble in the box, often with the flour/crumbs accumulating
- They were very soft
- The chips would not melt, they maintained their hardness to an extent (not like Nestle toll house by comparison)
- They would, literally, crumble in your mouth. You could press them against the roof of your mouth and they would crumble
I've hit up my high school reunion and friends, looking for a cook book from that bakery but nothing. I've experimented a dozen times but never found anything that would give cookies the above characteristics.
I would love for any advice, counsel you can offer on these mystery cookies.
Thank you in advance for your time.
Michael
