How Does Martha Stewart’s Five-Ingredient Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe Measure Up?
Martha Stewart has been sharing recipes for special dinners and classic desserts alike‚ keeping things traditional but with an engaging twist. Recently‚ Stewart ushered in the coming autumn and winter chill by sharing a chocolate chip cookie recipe that calls for only five ingredients. Sounds invitingly simple‚ but is the flavor at the end still good?
Self-admitted foodie and cookie connoisseur Sara Haas over at All Recipes gave the instructions a shot after Stewart posted them to Instagram. Haas went into this endeavor with a critical mind full of doubts that just five ingredients – as opposed to the usual eight‚ at the very least – could deliver quality flavor. Fortunately‚ she was pleasantly surprised.

On September 11‚ Stewart took to Instagram to share a simple chocolate chip cookie recipe with her 4.2 million followers. “Longing for homemade chocolate chip cookies in a snap?” her post begins. “Nut butter does double duty by replacing both flour and regular butter in these five-ingredient‚ two-bite treats (that are also gluten-free!).”

Haas praised the recipe for utilizing ingredients “I normally have on-hand” and for being difficult to ruin. Haas does warn‚ however‚ that while delicious‚ the cookie’s the flavor will not be quite the traditional flavor bakers expect from chocolate chip cookies. She notes that because of “the full cup of almond butter and absence of flour‚” the resulting taste will be distinctly nuttier than the usual dessert.
This same recipe change will also make them richer‚ so Haas anticipates one cookie might just be enough. Is it ever‚ though‚ when cookies are that tasty?

Additionally‚ Haas emphasizes that while the recipe does indeed work with just five ingredients‚ choosing those five is important and can make or break the final product. The almond butter of choice should list almonds as‚ ideally‚ the only ingredient‚ with salt as the only acceptable second item on the list. The chocolate chips used should also be the mini-sized ones.
