Description
Soft and chewy chocolate chip cookies with perfectly crispy edges. These delicious cookies are one of my most requested recipes and do not disappoint!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup butter (softened)
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups flour (all purpose)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet)
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer or using a hand mixer, cream together the butter and sugars until fluffy.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix to combine.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, cornstarch and salt. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients until just combined.
- Using a spatula, fold in the chocolate chips. Cover the bowl with plastic food wrap and place the dough in the fridge to chill for 1-2 hours. The dough should be cold and rather stiff (but still scoopable).
- Preheat oven to 350F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Scoop 1 1/2 tablespoon portions of cookie dough and roll them into balls. Place them onto the baking sheet, leaving space around each portion to allowing space for them to spread.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges begin to turn golden brown. Allow the cookies to rest for 5 minutes on the baking sheet and then carefully transfer them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Be careful not to over-bake your cookies. They should have slightly golden brown edges but may still look soft in the center when they come out of the oven.
- They will continue to bake on the pan while they set for the 5 additional minutes.
