Ingredients
- 226 g Unsalted butter
- 200 g Brown sugar
- 100 g Granulated sugar
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 tsp Pure vanilla extract
- 320 g All-purpose flour
- 2 tsp Cornstarch
- 1 tsp Baking soda
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 300 g Semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, melt the butter until just barely melted (either in the microwave or over the stove). Allow it to cool for a few minutes.
Step 3
Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar to the melted butter. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and combined.
Step 4
Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt.
Step 6
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula or wooden spoon until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing.
Step 7
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Step 8
Cover the cookie dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the dough to firm up.
Step 9
Using a cookie scoop or two spoons, form balls of dough about 2 tablespoons in size. Place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft and slightly underbaked. Do not overbake.
Step 11
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 12
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
