I used to make this recipe ten years ago in a different oven and the cookies were incredible. They were just like millies cookies.

Ive made 2 batches last week one turned out cakey and one turned out part raw. Today I’ve done 6 cookies baked one at a time with various timings and I can’t get it right! If they’re not cakey they’re raw.

Does 180C mean in a fan or non fan oven? And I’m using dark brown sugar does that change things?

Technically, dark brown sugar will be more acidic, and will therefore require more baking soda to balance it out, though I think that would have minor effects
