Introduction: The Allure of the Chunky Cookie
Picture a warm, freshly baked cookie, with its inviting aroma wafting through the air. Now, imagine that cookie, but with a New York twist – chunky, indulgent, and unforgettably delicious. That’s what we at Butterfield Cookies have mastered and what we're excited to share with you today.
What Makes New York Style Cookies Unique?
New York style cookies stand out in the world of baked delights. They are characterised by their size – they're big and bold. But it’s not just about the size. These cookies have a perfect balance of textures: crispy on the outside and wonderfully gooey on the inside. Each bite is a delightful mix of flavours that tantalise your taste buds.
The Ingredients: Quality Matters
The secret starts with the ingredients. High-quality butter, premium flour, and top-notch chocolate chunks (not mere chips!) make all the difference. We source our ingredients carefully, ensuring they meet our high standards for purity and flavor.
The Texture: A Delicate Balance
Achieving the right texture is a fine art. The outer crispness contrasts beautifully with the soft, melt-in-your-mouth center. Our bakers have honed their skills to get this balance just right, every single time.
The Art of Mixing: Less is More
Over mixing the dough can lead to tough cookies. We mix just enough to combine the ingredients, keeping the dough as tender as possible. This also helps in creating those lovely pockets of melted chocolate and ensures the cookies bake evenly.
Size and Baking: The Key to Chunkiness
Our cookies are generously portioned – a hallmark of the New York style. We use an ice cream scoop for uniformity. The baking time and temperature are meticulously calibrated to achieve the signature golden-brown exterior while retaining a soft interior.
Flavour Combinations: Beyond the Classic Chocolate Chip
While the classic chocolate chip cookie is timeless, we at Butterfield Cookies love pushing the boundaries with flavours. Think chunks of white chocolate and macadamia nuts, or a daring mix of dark chocolate and orange zest. Our secret? Always maintain a balance, so no flavour overpowers the other.

The perfect New York style chunky cookie is more than just a treat; it’s an experience. At Butterfield Cookies, we’re proud to share this experience with you. Each cookie is a testament to our passion for baking and a tribute to New York’s vibrant culinary spirit.
