What Makes Our Cookies Different
Only the finest
ingredients. No added preservatives.
Many food companies claim to use only the "finest ingredients." At Brent & Sam's, we really do use only the best, no generic commodity-type ingredients for us. We use brand-name butter and margarine, brand-name sugars and vanilla extract. Most cookie companies just go shopping for the cheapest ingredients. Not Brent & Sam's.
Pecans,
for example, can be purchased in four or five different "grades." We use only the top-of-the-line, called "fancy" grade. Chocolate chips come in various sizes. We use the larger ones, even though they are a little more expensive.
Most importantly, we have a higher ratio of "inclusions"
than you will find in any other cookies: more chocolate chips per cookie, more pecans, macadamia nuts, raisins, etc.
On top of that, we slow-bake our cookies at a lower
heat than most other companies. We could bake more cookies quicker, baking at high temperatures, but we've learned over the years that that does not produce the most flavorful cookie. Therefore, we just don't do it.
