Julie D. posted a mouth-watering recipe for Thick and Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars. In her comments section, someone asked if they could use unbleached instead of bleached flour. An interesting question. Rose Levy Berenbaum discusses the impact each type of flour may have on cookies, and has some suggestions if your cookies spread too […]
