Jessica Taylor Thank you so much for your comment. I really appreciate it. Re: the background music, the title is Start a Fire. I got it from my video editor’s music library.
I'm 2 years late to this party and have no idea what Levain cookies are, but I need an excellent cookie recipe right now! I cannot believe the effort you made to reply to nearly all of the questions. Reading them helped me figure out why I get different results sometimes. You rock!
Greetings from Malaysia. Wow, your copycat version of Levain chocolate chip walnut cookies look similar to the original version. Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe. I will definitely try it soon...
Thank you so much, it looks amazing!! I watched both this video & the levain double chocolate copycat recipe video and they both look soooo yummy 😋 would you kindly provide more information about the baking process? Do we turn on the fire in both the upper & lower rack? Where do we place the baking tray? In the middle rack?
@@YSGKitcheneria i still havent got to it yet, but they definitely look like the best copycat recipe that i have seen on the internet, and i am pretty sure i have watched every levain copycat video and pinterest recipe... good job!
Thank you! I did a lot of trial and error with this recipe. I also asked my Mom to get me Levain cookies when she was in NY for reference. I am very proud of this recipe. 😊
Can I use this dough recipe and incorporate other flavors? And is it okay to make it a little small in size? What should be the temperature and time of cookies if its in regular cookie size?
hi, you can certainly use the convection function but bake function will do. I just used the bake function. *NOTE: It will take lesser time when using the fan ON.
Hi. How long will the cookies last after they are baked? I wanna box these cookies to family and friends, so i’m wondering will it be ok after lets say 2-3 days?
i made one batch and they were so good. so i made another batch. but i wont need to bake them till later. how long can they stay in the fridge? can i freeze them and bake straight from frozen? thanks :)
That’s great news. You can make them and chill (fridge) up to 1 week and 1 month in the freezer. Let the cookie dough sit in room temperature or counter for 5 minutes before baking them if it came from the freezer. 😊
I just found your recipe, and already made twice. The first one, with your original recipe, taste too sweet for me, and i overbaked. So the second one i reduced the white sugar amount, and it turned really great and delicious. Thank your for sharing this recipe, i live in indonesia and never visiting NY though my sister in law live there. So this cookies good enough to feel the taste of NY for me 😬
y a Thank you! Yes you can make cake flour using all purpose flour and cornstarch. For every 1 cup of APF remove 2 Tbsps of APF then add 2 Tbsp of cornstarch, you now have 1 cup of cake flour.
@@YSGKitcheneria Thanks for your reply!! One more question, if I'm making chocolate cookies do I add cocoa powder and lessen the flour? and how many grams would that be?
Not sure if channel will reply, I did 140g (so 30g less than recipe) and kept same times, and did the temp at 200. I would recommend, for less dough, Same temp as me: 200°c (otherwise they will spread if it's lower temp) And I would try 13mins Try a single cookie first to test it. Let it cool after baking for an hour before taste testing so it can set in middle. If it's underdone, do it for longer, And opposite if it's a bit dry. Mine browned quite quick, so keep an eye on them after 10min mark so they don't burn.
Sorry for the late response. Please bake the cookies at the same temperature but less time. Each oven is different, so you may want to try baking 1-2 cookies first to test how long you will bake it for. I would suggest 10-12 minutes first, if it is still shiny in the middle, bake for another minute or two. Hope that helps. Happy baking!
Hi, my maths skills are poor. Could you explain your trick to make cake flour for those only fluent in metric sytem of grams. Thanks I'm looking forward to trying this.
Hi, you need to let the cookies cool down in the baking tray for 5-10 minutes before transferring them in a cooling rack. I know it is very tempting to try the cookies as soon as they come out of the oven but cooling them will make it easier to handle. Hope that helps. 😊
@@YSGKitcheneria Hi thanks...my problem is even after its fully cooled down they tend to break up very easily when handling...really appreciate you taking the time to answer our queries
@@ameeradil Oh I see. You might have measured the dry ingredients wrong. That is the only thing I can think of why your cookies are crumbly. Let me know if that helps. 😊
floral dray Hello, you can bake the cookies at the same temperature for 18 minutes if you want them fully cooked and still be chunky. You don’t want to bake them more than that because it won’t be chewy inside anymore.
Thank you so much for the recipe! How cold should the cold butter be? Can it be cubed straight from the chiller then immediately put in the mixer? Thanks!
Hi. yes these cookies are crispy on the outside and very moist inside. Make sure to store the cookies in an airtight container so the texture will stay the same and these can last for a week.
hello, you can use all purpose flour + cornstarch. For every cup of apf, remove 2 Tbsp. then add 2 Tbsp. of cornstarch. You now have 1 cup of cake flour.
Hi! I want to try this recipe but I don't have a stand mixer, can I use a hand mixer instead? Or can I just mix it manually using a spatula? Thank you! :)
I definitely will try this recipe! Do you recommend using a convection oven or just a regular one? And if I use a convection oven, should I try a different temperature and cook time?
Liseth Guevara Báez You don’t need to use a convection oven, a regular oven will do. I have a convection oven but I didn’t turn the fan on. I haven’t tried turning the fan on and baking these so I can’t tell you exactly the temp and baking time. Just do remember that if you use a convection oven with the fan on, you may need to lower the temp and lessen the baking time.
YSG Kitcheneria thank you! I made them! They are in the fridge right now! 😋 one last question. My oven can bake using heat from top, bottom, top and bottom, and convection. What do you suggest?
Liseth Guevara Báez I would suggest turning both the top and bottom heat on so the cookies bake evenly. Another tip, since the temp required is 400 F, put your cookies / sheet tray in the middle rack to prevent the bottom of the cookies from burning/ turning brown too quickly.
Jade Medina Hi, I haven’t tried using bread flour for this recipe. In other cookie recipes, you can use bread flour. Bread flour has a high protein content which makes cookies chewy. However, Levain Bakery cookie has this signature cake like texture in the middle that is why it uses both apf and cake flour.
@@YSGKitcheneria thank you! last time i did 8 mins of top heat and 7 mins of bottom heat since 15 mins of both burnt it. what do you think i should do?
@@thalitaputri6390 Hi, you can try lowering the oven temperature by 10 degrees. It will also be helpful if you use a heavy duty/ thick baking tray to prevent browning/ burning the bottom.
Yes. If you don’t have cake flour, you can make it. For every 1 cup of all purpose flour, remove 2 Tbsp of apf then add 2 Tbsp of cornstarch, you now have 1 cup cake flour.
Jennifer Peterson I baked them in the middle rack. Btw, it is not a silly question. I tried baking them in the bottom rack but it is too hot that it bakes the bottom faster than the top. 😊
@@YSGKitcheneria Thank you so much! I actually made your cookie dough early this morning and am baking them for dessert for my family....Just didn't know rack position and I don't want them to burn.
@@YSGKitcheneria I have the same question but adding, my oven has top, top and bottom, broil, and bottom options . What to use? I think this details are overlook in everysingle recipe I see on the internet, temps and time. I actually burned my cookies last time so im lookin not to do that again
It actually depends on your oven. For this recipe bake the cookies in the middle rack. If you don’t have a middle rack, bake them on the top rack. Usually the bottom rack of the oven is hotter than the top. Do not put your oven to broil mode just in the bake mode. I hope it helps.
Fats Anja Cornstarch makes the cookies chewier. You probably won’t notice a big difference. Just make sure not to overbake the cookies so it will still be moist and chewy on the inside.
Hello, I’m Super super excited just made the dough but wanted to ask if I can just chill them for 30 mins or maybe a few hours instead of overnight lol I don’t think I can wait that long 🤣
Hi, chilling them overnight develops flavor and makes the cookie retain its shape. However, if you can’t wait that long, you can freeze them for 30 minutes- 1 hour.
Hi, yes you can do that. TIP: Scoop the nutella spread into small balls/ dollops then freeze until it is solid then fill the cookie dough with the frozen nutella balls. Chill the cookie overnight before baking. For sure it will be amazing! 😊
@@YSGKitcheneria i have one more question if you can answer please. this will be my first time trying to bake how big of a mixing bowl should I buy? THANKS!
@@FrankieBeanss I would get a big bowl. It is advisable to use a hand / stand mixer for this recipe because it starts with cold butter. It is quite hard to do it by hand.
@@YSGKitcheneria I've been to three supermarkets and nobody sells cake flour I'm about to walk into a bakery and ask them if they would sell me some lol
Hello, I believe my recipe tastes close to Levain Bakery’s cookie. I even asked my mom to get some from NY for me to be able to develop the recipe. You can try my recipe and let me know how you like it! 😊
Hi, you mean substituting cake flour? For every 1 cup of all purpose flour, remove 2 Tbsp then add 2 Tbsp of cornstarch. Now you have 1 cup of cake flour. I hope I was able to answer your question.
@@YSGKitcheneria okay I got it.. I tried it without taking off 1 tablespoon of flour, it still is so yummy.. will try lesser this time.. thank you so much.... best recipe ever!!❤❤
Simon Gabriel Causing Yes, the cookie dough needs to be baked straight from the fridge. It is supposed to be rock hard before baking to achieve the right texture of the cookie. 😊
Hello, it means that if you don’t have cake flour, you can use all purpose flour and cornstarch to make your own cake flour. Measure 1 cup of apf then remove 2 Tbsp of apf and then add 2 Tbsp. of cornstarch.
Hya Gregorio Hello, yes absolutely! This recipe already has a lot of chocolate chips but if you really want more, you can. It will be more chocolate-y. 🤩

hii, if im using palm sugar instead of light brown sugar, is it okay? or will it change the texture? thanks before!^^
Hello, I would say it might change the texture of the cookie. But, you can certainly try using palm sugar and let me know if it worked.
Should the dough be cold before baking or needs to be in room temperature.?
Simon Gabriel Causing Yes, the cookie dough needs to be baked straight from the fridge. It is supposed to be rock hard before baking to achieve the right texture of the cookie. 😊
how many cookies come out????
Pamela Valentina Fernández Lopez Hello, this recipe makes 6-7 (6oz. ) cookies
YSG Kitcheneria omg thanks i will make thame todayyy
Hii, I’m sorry, can u please explain me how can I substitute the cake flour? I didn’t get it:( sorry
Hello, it means that if you don’t have cake flour, you can use all purpose flour and cornstarch to make your own cake flour. Measure 1 cup of apf then remove 2 Tbsp of apf and then add 2 Tbsp. of cornstarch.
@@YSGKitcheneria thaaanksss❤️❤️
@@valentinacastillo8363 my pleasure!
Sorry to ask if it's been asked already (I tried searching the comments), but what kind of salt are you using? kosher coarse salt? or fine salt?
TheMarkUp Hello, I used kosher (fine) salt.
Hi! If i dont have walnuts, can i replace it with more chocolate chips? Thank you!
Hya Gregorio Hello, yes absolutely! This recipe already has a lot of chocolate chips but if you really want more, you can. It will be more chocolate-y. 🤩
YSG Kitcheneria thank you for the reply! If i dont have walnuts and i will not add more chocolate, will it still hold its shape?
Hya Gregorio Yes, you can totally omit the walnuts. Texture of the cookie will still be the same.
After you remove it from the fridge will u bake it rigth a way?
Allyssa Yusi Yes.
Do we really have to chill overnight?
Hi, yes you do need to chill to have that chunky outcome. Chilling the dough will also prevent the dough from spreading.
Hi can you write the measurements converted into cups? Pls thanks
Yes I agree.
Yes..please convert to cups!
Hello what if i dont have a mixer
Kyle&Dan Hi, you can make the cookie dough by hand but it will be quite a workout but still it will work.
YSG Kitcheneria thanks!!
Kyle&Dan You’re welcome!
