Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 120 grams light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 195 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 180 grams chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your 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, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together until the mixture is light and creamy. This should take about 2-3 minutes using an electric hand mixer or stand mixer with a paddle attachment.
Step 3
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl and beat until fully incorporated.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, portion out the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked but will set as they cool.
Step 9
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking trays for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve and watch the kids devour these chewy, chocolatey treats. Enjoy!
