Customize exactly how you want your cookies to turn out and it will generate the perfect recipe for your perfect cookie. Would really like everyone's feedback!

If the traffic proves stable, I'd consider it. Think of it as a way to recommend brands you like
One would probably learn a lot about cookie baking by dialing up variations and trying them each out.
BTW: you get really fun results when trying to make 1 cookie. I'm not sure I have a teaspoon small enough for that.

I'm going to try baking these tomorrow, would be cool if cup-measiremrnts mattered more than how many cookies come out. That way I don't have to do all the calculation and figure out the exact number of cookies Id need to get nice rounded numbers.
But 160 is way low if it's F, so ????
I think the creator needs to step in and let us know LOL

I know the other commenters are giving you plenty of TODOs, but what I think could make this shine: explanations (like a ? by each dial) that give some details by the property (what is smooth vs craggy?) and how extreme the spectrum goes (is extremely soft just warmed cookie dough?). Photo examples could help too!
Also, generating a deterministic name based on the inputs could help people share or differentiate recipes, more so than by unlabeled values.
Fun project, good job.
Eg you could have the nice deterministic name like you say, but also something like “with high flour to sugar ratio for softness” or whatever the actual truth of the matter is
UX wise, it would be far easier to understand if the other sliders responded instantly so that I could see as I drag one slider how much it impacts the others, without having to release the mouse at each step to find this out.

Also, this website would suit GDPR compliance perfectly. You need a popup with one option:
"I'm okay with cookies!"
For example, Stripe is loaded early on and uses tracking cookies, which are not necessary until a visitor decides to donate.
While true and I agree, Stripe argues that their anti-fraud system is helped if you load the JS code as early as possible, so assuming they are doing bunch of tracking in order to identify fraud when they finally go to the payment screen.
Recipes written by experienced cooks often parallelize 2-3 tasks. For example, you can preheat the oven while boiling the pasta while you're making the sauce. This not only saves time but is actually essential to the recipe. If you try to execute all three tasks in serial, either the pasta or the sauce will be in a less than ideal condition.
Some errors in the testing framework were identified and will be rectified in subsequent test suite runs
- might be best to include the C as units for temp
- somehow allow scaling recipe to whatever my eggs actually weigh, (I know I can estimate manually bumping the output up and down, but it'd be nice to do exact calculations)
- generate cookie previews :P
Weights and lengths in metric, volumes and temperatures in imperial (or US customary, I can't tell which).
And time in Babylonian.
Edit: Actually I can't tell if temperature is F or C.
