I always chilled my cookie dough overnight, but a baker in Portland told me to try a 48-hour rest.

The flavor depth in my chocolate chip batch last week was unreal... I'm never going back. Has anyone else experimented with longer chill times for different recipes?

Wait, that's actually a 72-hour rest, not 48.

Oh man, did I really mess up the math that bad? Thanks for the catch, @quinn_fox. My brain must be the one that needs a 72-hour rest.

Ugh yeah that's the thing isn't it - time just gets away from us and suddenly three days feels like one. I swear half the stuff in my life runs on "close enough" math.
