CRISPY CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
Yields: approximately 4 dozen cookies
 
INGREDIENTS
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • ½ cup white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (I use minis)
  • flaky sea salt (optional)
PREPARATION
  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Line baking sheets with either parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
  2. Sift together flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a medium sized mixing bowl, mix together butter, brown sugar and white sugar until smooth. Add egg, egg yolk and vanilla and whisk until as fluffy as it will get before your arm gets tired. (I swear the secret to these is not using your stand mixer).
  4. Fold in flour mixture until fully incorporated followed by chocolate chips until evenly distributed. Cover and chill dough for about an hour.
  5. Use a one-inch cookie scoop to evenly scoop cookies about three inches apart. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown on the bottom/edges. Top should appear glossy, but not wet. Transfer to wire rack to cool.
