Acorn Cookie

Taken all the way down to base materials, a batch of 3 Acorn Cookie is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — Rye Flour ×1 and Table Salt ×1 — which resolve to 4 distinct raw materials totalling 6 units, plus 9 crystals.

That bill outweighs 4,542 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 531 of the 1,058 Culinarian ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 7 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 2 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 6 Fire Shard and 3 Water Shard.

Every step is Culinarian work, from a Lv 1 intermediate up to the Lv 34 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

3 of the 4 raw materials match a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 1 comes from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Acorn Cookie is itself consumed by 2 further recipes, all of them Culinarian recipes.
