this reminded me of two books by
https://www.amazon.com/CookWise-Successful-Cooking-Secrets-Revealed/dp/0688102298
and
https://www.amazon.com/BakeWise-Successful-Baking-Magnificent-Recipes/dp/1416560785
this was before ' Scientific Cooking ' really took off.
in the bake wise book there is a two page spread that suggests to you how to re-design your cookie Rx :
crispier ? .....
spreading too much ? ..............
etc
for review purposes consider ;
I highly recommend these books , and I brought them down from a very dusty shelf and will be reading them again over the next few days
