How to make the perfect cookies (according to science) - Stephanie Warren

Dig into the chemistry of baking to find out how dough becomes cookies, and how to use science to make the perfect cookie. -- You stick cookie dough into an oven, and magically, you get a plate of warm, gooey cookies. Except it's not magic; it's science. Stephanie Warren explains via basic chemistry principles how the dough spreads out, at what temperature we can kill salmonella, and why that intoxicating smell wafting from your oven indicates that the cookies are ready for eating.
