Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup matzo cake meal
- 1 cup potato starch
- 0.5 teaspoons kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter or margarine (at room temperature)
- 0.75 cup brown sugar
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups bittersweet or semisweet chocolate chips (kosher for Passover)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the matzo cake meal, potato starch, kosher salt, and baking soda. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream the unsalted butter (or margarine) with the brown sugar and granulated sugar for about 2–3 minutes until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time to the sugar and butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients (matzo mixture) to the wet mixture, beating on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underdone, but they will firm up as the cookies cool.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your Passover Chocolate Chip Cookies with family and friends!
