How to Bake The Best Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Who doesn't love chewy chocolate chip cookies even the aroma of them baking gets everyone jumping with joy! 

I have come up with an amazing recipe that will have everyone head over heels for these amazing chewy goodness and everything you can imagine in a perfect chocolate chip cookie 

Servings: 12

INGREDIENTS

½ cup sugar

¾ cup brown sugar, packed

1 teaspoon salt

½ cup butter, melted

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1¼ cups all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon baking soda

5 ounces milk or semi-sweet chocolate chunks 

PREPARATION

• Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C.

• In a large bowl, whisk together the sugars, salt, and butter until a paste has formed with no lumps.
• Whisk in the egg and vanilla, beating until light ribbons fall off the whisk.
• Sift in the flour and baking soda, then fold the mixture with a spatula, being careful not to over mix too much. This will cause the gluten in the flour to toughen which will result in cakier cookies.
• Fold in the chocolate chunks evenly, then chill the dough for at least 30 minutes. For a more intense toffee-like flavor and deeper color, chill the dough overnight. The longer the dough rests, the more complex its flavor will be.
• Scoop the dough with an ice-cream scoop onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, leaving at least 4 inches of space between cookies and 2 inches of space from the edges of the pan so that the cookies can spread evenly.
• Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges have started to barely brown.
• Cool completely, and enjoy!
