CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies image

These super soft and chewy chocolate chip cookies are the most popular cookie recipe on my website for good reason. Melted butter, more brown sugar than white sugar, cornstarch, and an extra egg yolk guarantee the absolute chewiest chocolate chip cookie texture. The cookie dough is slick and requires chilling prior to shaping the cookies. Review recipe notes before beginning.

Time 3h22m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 and 1/4 cups (280g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 and 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch*
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup (1.5 sticks or 170g) unsalted butter, melted & cooled 5 minutes*
3/4 cup (150g) packed light or dark brown sugar
1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
1 large egg + 1 egg yolk, at room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 and 1/4 cups (225g) semi-sweet chocolate chips or chocolate chunks

Steps:

  • Whisk the flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt together in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until no brown sugar lumps remain. Whisk in the egg and egg yolk. Finally, whisk in the vanilla extract. The mixture will be thin. Pour into dry ingredients and mix together with a large spoon or rubber spatula. The dough will be very soft, thick, and appear greasy. Fold in the chocolate chips. The chocolate chips may not stick to the dough because of the melted butter, but do your best to combine them.
  • Cover the dough tightly and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2-3 hours or up to 3 days. I highly recommend chilling the cookie dough overnight for less spreading.
  • Take the dough out of the refrigerator and allow it to slightly soften at room temperature for 10 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Line large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
  • Using a cookie scoop or Tablespoon measuring spoon, measure 3 scant Tablespoons (about 2 ounces, or 60g) of dough for XL cookies or 2 heaping Tablespoons (about 1.75 ounces, or 50g) of dough for medium/large cookies. Roll into a ball, making sure the shape is taller rather than wide-almost like a cylinder. This helps the cookies bake up thicker. Repeat with remaining dough. Place 8-9 balls of dough onto each cookie sheet.
  • Bake the cookies for 12-13 minutes or until the edges are very lightly browned. (XL cookies can take closer to 14 minutes.) The centers will look very soft, but the cookies will continue to set as they cool. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, press a few extra chocolate chips into the tops of the warm cookies. This is optional and only for looks. After 10 minutes of cooling on the baking sheets, transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Cookies stay fresh covered at room temperature for up to 1 week.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup (115 grams) butter, softened to room temperature
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract, store-bought or homemade
1 1/2 cups (180 grams) all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
optional: flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt until combined. Set aside.
  • Using a separate mixing bowl, either with a stand mixer or a hand mixer, cream together the softened butter and sugars on medium-high speed until the mixture is light and fluffy and a pale yellow color, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally as needed. Add egg and vanilla, and beat on medium speed until combined, about 30 seconds. Add the dry ingredient mixture, and beat on medium-low speed until just combined.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips by hand, using a spatula or wooden spoon, until they are evenly combined.
  • Transfer the dough to an airtight container and refrigerate it for 2 hours, or until it is chilled through.
  • Heat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
  • Once the cookie dough is completely chilled, remove it from the refrigerator. Scoop out and roll dough balls that are 1-inch in diameter. Then place the dough balls on a baking sheet that is covered with either parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly crispy and the tops of the cookies are very lightly golden. The centers may look slightly undercooked.
  • Remove the cookies and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with a pinch of flaky sea salt, if you would like. Then transfer them to a wire rack to finish cooling. Then dive in while the cookies are nice and warm! Or, transfer to a sealed container and store for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.

CORNSTARCH CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES RECIPE - (4.2/5)



Cornstarch Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by á-20635

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup bittersweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt; set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and both sugars on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl then add the egg and vanilla and beat until well combined. Add half of the flour mixture and mix for 15 seconds. Add the remaining flour mixture and beat until just incorporated. Fold in chocolate chips. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between them. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until barely golden brown around the edges. Let cookies cool on sheets for 5 minutes before transferring cookies to wire racks to cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use cornstarch for a chewy texture: Cornstarch is a key ingredient in these cookies that helps to create a chewy texture. Make sure to measure it accurately, as too much cornstarch can make the cookies dry.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough helps to firm it up and makes it easier to handle. This will also help the cookies to spread less in the oven, resulting in a thicker cookie. While chilling for 30 minutes is recommended, you can chill for up to 2 days for a more intense flavor.
  • Use high-quality chocolate chips: The chocolate chips are a key flavor component in these cookies, so it's important to use high-quality chips. Look for chips that are made with real chocolate and have a high cocoa content.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough can result in tough cookies. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined, then stop.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown: The cookies are done baking when the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. Be careful not to overbake the cookies, as this can make them dry.

Conclusion:

These cornstarch chocolate chip cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their chewy texture and rich chocolate flavor, they're sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a classic cookie recipe, give these cornstarch chocolate chip cookies a try. You won't be disappointed.
