Giant cookie

Submitted by gil on

A giant cookie takes the entire batch of cookie dough and puts it into the bottom of the dutch oven. My recipe was the cookie recipe off the back of the Toll House bag. The result was delicious and more food than expected! I have a picture of the finished recipe that I can put up later.

I did this with 20 top / 8 bottom coals as an increase from the previous attempts to get 350 degree ovens in this weather. After 30 minutes of baking the batter was melting but not browning. I expected it to be mostly done by then. I took four coals off the bottom and put them on top. Finally, after an hour of total baking I pulled the thing. The result was done (toothpick test) but not as well as I would like. The top or bottom were barely crunchy. Maybe I need to up the coals even more. It was still around freezing.
