Cookies or Brownies?
Which is better, Cookies or Brownies. This question has stumped me and my family for years, and today I am here to finally settle the debate about which baked dessert item is the best. First and foremost, I am going to be talking about the classic, chocolate-chip cookie, and normal chocolate brownie. From a texture standpoint, I think that brownies are better. When they are baked just right, the soft, mushy consistency is nothing short of heavenly. However, a cookie lacks the gooey texture that the brownie has, especially if it is left out fro more than a day. From a flavor standpoint, I think that cookies and brownies each offer up their own strengths. Brownies have the fudgy, chocolaty taste, while cookies have a nice balance between dough and chocolate. The final category I will be judging in is storability. Brownies can be in a fridge for as long as your want, and with a quick microwave, can be just as good as when they first came out of the oven. Cookies however, tend to lose all of their moisture after a single day, becoming hard and brittle, even with microwaving. So which one is better? With all things considered, I think that it is safe to say that brownies are superior to cookies, when it comes to taste texture, and storability.
