Stand mixers are for losers.
Winners are the ones whose fucking arms have fallen off by the time the cookies are done.
I just spent an hour and a half preparing the dough for these chocolate chip cookies, deviating from the recipe only in that 1) I obviously do not have a stand mixer, because I am an armless winner, and 2) I used chocolate chips instead of chopped baking chocolate. The recipe dirties three bowls, two whisks, and a saucepan, and the dough needs to spend the night in the fridge.
There's a lengthy article explaining the chemical rationale behind all these steps. I shall learn tomorrow whether to take chemistry seriously.

Despite all the nostalgia for my grandparents and baking with them, I do not miss mixing oatmeal cookie dough by hand AT ALL.
