Question:

How do I keep the edges from burning on a giant chocolate chip cookie?

I really hope someone can help me with thisI have found some answers to this question throughout this site, but just don't understand what it means to put aluminum foil on the outsideOutside of what? The edges of my 13quot; pizza pan or the edges of my pan and cookie????????I am NO chef, so forgive me if this question sounds trite, but I just don't understand where exactly it goes.I had wanted to bake my cookie tonight, but just got off work and would like some feedback before I attempt this.I love that people give recipes, that's so sweetIf only I could really bake or had the time to do it, LOL.I have 2 big rolls of Pillsbury chocolate chip cookie dough and a 13quot; inch pizza pan (aluminum, non-stick)I plan on spraying the pan and putting down greased parchment, am I right so far?Then the aluminum thing? Uh, I don't get itWhere does it go please?Thank you.Lexi in LV

Answer:

Put the bacon on a paper plate and cook in the micro waveThat is how I cook it every morning and it is so good.
I do a lot of bakingSometimes I wrap wet towels around the cake pans to prevent over heating the pan but I've never done such a thing for cookiesBut if your recipe asks you to put aluminum foil outside, that means you have to wrap the foil around the pizza panWhen baking cookies: you have to watch the timingIf you take the cookies out on time, the edges shouldn't burn Read instructions carefully for baking timeYou have to set the time and still check the cookiesNot that all the ovens get heated in the same manner at certain temperatureWhen the top of the cookies get golden, you should take them outIf you leave them on the cookie sheet, they will get done from the heat of the cookie sheetIf they are already done, take them out of the cookie sheet otherwise they will get burned.
I love bacon and don't like it crisp either! I usually pan fry mine, but I've also broiled itWhen I do that, I like to dust each slice in a mixture of flour and brown sugar for extra flavorMake sure that each slice is separated from the other and watch closelyI don't have the pan too close to the flame so it doesn't get burntAnd I turn it frequentlyWhen it's golden but still has some fat on the ends, it's done.
Like the other poster, layout on baking sheet, pre-heat oven to 350only difference for me is i put a second baking sheet on top of bacon to use as a weightThis prevent bacon from curling up, and gives me straight bacon stripsalso the second pan also help conduct heat so bacon cooks on both sidesFor less than crispy bacon, just remove from oven once bacon fat is rendered and clear instead opaque in color.
Ever since I found that I can cook bacon in the microwave and have it turn out just as well as if I cooked it in a skillet, I've never fried bacon or cooked it in the ovenAll microwaves are different and cook differently, so if you want to try it out it will be a trial and error kind of thingI put a half a pound of bacon on a plate, cover it with paper towels, and cook it for about 5 minutesI want it cooked, but not hard or overdoneYou can start by placing bacon on a microwave safe plate covered with paper towels, cook for 3 minutes, and judge how much longer you think it will need.
