Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 c (2 sticks) salted butter, softened
1/2 c sugar
1 1/2 c brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
3 c (12 oz) all-purpose flour
1 tsp smallish-medium coarse sea salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
2 c /16 oz of semi-sweet chocolate chips (grandma used nestle, we used ghiradelli)
2/3 c finely chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2. Cream butter, sugar, and brown sugar until it is nice and fluffy (approx. 5 minutes on medium speed on a KitchenAid Mixer.) Make sure the mixture gets VERY creamy.
  • 3. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat for an additional 2 minutes. Add baking soda, baking powder, salt, and flour until cookie batter is fully incorporated. Finally add chocolate chips and the walnuts until well distributed. The cookie batter should be somewhat thick. Drop about 2 tablespoons of dough or use a medium cookie scoop and plop the batter onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • 4. Bake for 12-14 minutes until the edges are nice and golden brown. We baked ours for 14 minutes, just watch them. Remove from heat and allow the cookies to stay on the cookie sheet for an additional 2 minutes. Pick up the parchment paper with the cookies still on top and transfer to a cool non-porous surface. Allow the cookies to cool on the paper for at least 3 minutes before serving. It was hard to wait 3 minutes, but we listened to Grandma's advice :) it was so hard to do...but well worth the wait...

CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES: GRANNY STYLE RECIPE BY TASTY



Chocolate Chip Cookies: Granny Style Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: granulated sugar, brown sugar, kosher salt, unsalted butter, large egg, vanilla extract, all purpose flour, baking soda, chocolate chips, sea salt, milk

Provided by Codii Lopez

Categories     Desserts

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

½ cup granulated sugar
¾ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ¼ cups all purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
2 cups chocolate chips
1 pinch sea salt
milk, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the sugars, salt, and butter until a paste forms with no lumps.
  • Whisk in the egg and vanilla, beating until light ribbons fall off the whisk and remain for a short while before dissolving back into the mixture.
  • Sift in the flour and baking soda, then fold with a spatula to combine. (Be careful not to overmix, as the gluten in the flour to toughen resulting in cakier cookies.)
  • Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes or, for a more intense, toffee-like flavor and deeper color, chill overnight. The longer the dough rests, the more complex its flavor will be.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Scoop the dough with an ice-cream scoop onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 4 inches (10 centimeters) of space between cookies and 2 inches (5 centimeters) of space from the edges of the pan so that the cookies can spread evenly.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges have started to barely brown. Top each cookie with a pinch of sea salt as soon as they come out of the oven, then let cool completely.
  • Serve with a glass of milk.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate chips. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cookies. Look for chocolate chips that are made with real cocoa butter and have a high cacao content.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will result in tough, dry cookies. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will give the cookies a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before enjoying them. This will allow the flavors to meld and the cookies to firm up.

Conclusion:

These chocolate chip cookies are a classic for a reason. They're easy to make, delicious, and always a hit with people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make sure your chocolate chip cookies turn out perfect every time.
