Hi Lauren

I have a conventional oven, can you tell me what 165C is equal to in the F mode.

Thanks Matt, glad you liked them! They are so popular here at the office that you can put out a tray, blink, and then all that is left is crumbs! Thanks for reading

Hi Katie,
Yes, using half the amount the amount of sugar will make a difference to the final cookies. Sugar has quite a high moisture content (as shown when melting for a caramel), so reducing the amount of sugar in the recipe will result in drier, cakey cookies. Another way to get chewier cookies is to pull them out of the oven when they are still a little under-done; this may help achieve the texture you are after with less sugar. Thanks for leaving a comment; we love to hear from our readers. Happy baking!
