Chocolate Chip Cookies


  • Author: Leora Ellingson

Description

Fresh out of the oven and absolutely worth it 🍪✨
Soft centers, golden edges, and melty chocolate chips in every bite. These are the kind of chocolate chip cookies that make the whole house smell like comfort and nostalgia.  And somehow these disappear way too fast. Best enjoyed warm, maybe with a glass of milk, or straight off the cooling rack. No judgment here 


Ingredients

Scale

1 cup butter

1 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup white sugar

2 eggs

1 tablespoon vanilla

2 tablespoons cornstarch

2 ½ cups + 2 tablespoons flour

2 teaspoons baking soda

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

2 cups chocolate chips


Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a stand mixer, beat the butter and sugars on high speed until light and fluffy.

Add eggs and vanilla and beat for 1 minute more.

Mix in cornstarch, flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Stir in chocolate chips.  Using a cookie scoop, place on prepared baking sheets, about 2-3 inches apart.

Bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until cookies are just golden. Do not over bake. Let sit on cookie sheet for ten minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.  Finish with Maldon salt when they come out of the oven.

Hi! I'm Leora. I am married to a Battalion Chief (who is also the man of my dreams!), a mom to five grown kids, and a nana to seven darling grandkids! I firmly believe in the importance of putting distractions away and sitting down together for family dinner, and doing so has been a tradition in our home ever since my husband and I got married 30 years ago. In fact, my children still come home often for family dinners, even though most are moved out of the house. My goal is to provide you with delicious recipes that you can share with your loved ones around the table. So, join my family for dinner, and pass your plates!
