I honestly can't even remember where I got this recipe from. I might have gotten it 5 years ago when I was in like, middle school. I've had it so long because it's the best recipe I've ever made. The outside of the cookies are chewy, but the middle stays soft even after days. Until I find another recipe I like more, this is my chocolate chip cookie recipe.
Chocolate Chip Cookies
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 egg + 1 egg yolk
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Grease cookie sheets or line with parchment paper.
Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.
In a medium bowl, cream together the melted butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until well blended.
Beat in the vanilla, egg, and egg yolk until light and creamy. Mix in the sifted ingredients until just blended. Stir in the chocolate chips by hand using a wooden spoon. Drop cookie dough 1/4 cup at a time onto the prepared cookie sheets. Cookies should be about 3 inches apart.
Bake for 15 to 17 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the edges are lightly toasted. Cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Each cookie = 5P+
Note: Made like this, they are HUGE cookies, and it made about 2 dozen. Next time I might actually use a rounded over tablespoon instead. They also spread out a ton, so I might also experiment with putting them in the fridge a little bit before they go in the oven so they're a rounder cookie, instead of flat.
