I just made these cookies in my new stove. They are really good. I do love King Arthur and the wonderful service you provide. Thank you! I used 12 oz. of semi-sweet chocolate chips and 6 oz. of Cherry Republic dried Montmorency cherries left from vacation. I don't think they could be any better. I was wondering if you have words of advice about using a convection oven to bake. I am just getting used to my new one. Using the "convection option" it reduces the temperature by 25 degrees and I notice that the front of the cookies are browner than the back in convection bake. Without convection bake the backs browned first. I generally just turned the sheet around half way through. But is there more to know? Do you feel convection is best for baking? Please teach me something about convection. I loved what you said about fitting 15 cookies on a sheet. You are terrific!
