Ingredients
- 2 sticks unsalted butter
- 2 1/4 cups bread flour
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/4 cups brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
-
Heat oven to 375 degrees.
-
Melt the butter in a heavy-bottom medium saucepan over low heat. Sift together the flour, salt, and baking soda and set aside.
-
Pour the melted butter in the mixer's work bowl. Add the sugar and brown sugar. Cream the butter and sugars on medium speed. Add the egg, yolk, 2 tablespoons milk and vanilla extract and mix until well combined. Slowly incorporate the flour mixture until thoroughly combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
-
Chill the dough, then scoop onto parchment-lined baking sheets, 6 cookies per sheet. Bake for 14 minutes or until golden brown, checking the cookies after 5 minutes. Rotate the baking sheet for even browning. Cool completely and store in an airtight container.
Love the recipe, but one note I would add that I did not think about ahead of time is to let the melted butter cool a bit before adding to sugar… all was great until I added the chocolate chips and they melted a little. It was not a big issue as I put them in the refrigerator and all was well, but be aware. Thanks for the recipe
Meh. I made it as written and I think it turned out as intended – I just didn’t really like it. It is cakey (not dry though). I guess I prefer something with more chew and texture. I won’t make these again unless someone wants me to make them a thick, soft (not chewy) cake like cookie.
Hi there! Sorry you didn’t care for this particular cookie! I hope you will try one of Tessa’s own famous cookie recipes instead! Her Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookies are our most popular and beloved cookie recipe, and her Browned Butter Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookies were recently featured on Good Morning America as their favorite cookie recipe ever!! Happy baking 🙂
The cookies are fantastic and so delicious . I love this recipe. I set my oven temperature on 365 because I have a Confection oven
Hi Mary! So happy you enjoyed these cookies! I just wanted to mention your oven temperature; I also use the convection setting on my oven, but it’s highly inconsistent between what the temperature on the oven says, and what my oven thermometer reads inside. Just for your own knowledge, I have linked Tessa’s article about oven temperatures and using an oven thermometer for consistency. I hope that helps! Happy baking! 🙂
These were delicious! Crispy on the edges, chewy in the middle. Perfection. I did end up adding more flour because my mixture was runny — I read the comments and noticed several others did the same. Saving this recipe!
