Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 170 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 140 grams packed brown sugar
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 300 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 300 grams chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, set it aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, portion the dough into balls (about 2 tablespoons each) and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden, and the centers look slightly underbaked.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your soft chocolate chip cookies!
