Description

Indulge in the perfect harmony of buttery goodness and rich chocolatey flavor with these soft, chewy chocolate chip cookies.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

  1. Cream the softened unsalted butter until smooth and fluffy with the brown and granulated sugars.
  2. Beat in the two large eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Gradually combine the dry ingredients with the wet mixture, mixing until just blended.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips or chunks.
