BAKERY STYLE CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
I know... Not ANOTHER chocolate chip cookie recipe... BUT, you'll find that these are sheer perfection, large bakery-style, thick and chewy, cookies that taste as good as they look with a fool-proof set of instructions. It was pointed out to me that this recipe is from Baking Illustrated, perhaps so as I wrote down the ingredients from a morning show years ago! Thanks for letting me know.

Steps:
- A couple of tips from helpful reviewers.
- The dough is meant to be on the dry side so it can be rolled, not dropped.
- If you're not getting a good flavor, try using a higher quality vanilla and/or chocolate chips. (Penzey's Madagascar Vanilla, Ghirardelli chips, fresh/real butter).
- Check your oven temperature, cooking time and temperature is critical. If the cookies are not chewy they are probably overcooked.
- Bread flour will make the cookies even more chewy, biscuit flour will make them less chewy.
- Do not let your dough get warm, I like to scoop it on to pans and refrigerate before I pop them in the oven.
- Pan color is very important, if they are too dark you may experience some crisp edges, try using some parchment and lowering the cooking temperature a bit.
- Place oven racks in the upper and lower 1/3's of the oven.
- Preheat oven to 325°F.
- Cover 2 large cookie sheets with parchment paper Mix flour, baking powder & salt in a bowl or bag and set aside.
- Mix butter and sugars with with a mixer until blended and smooth, add egg, yolk & vanilla.
- Mix until incorporated.
- Add dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Stir in chips and optional nuts.
- Divide into 18 equal balls, a 2" cookie scoop works just about perfectly, about 60 gms each.
- EVENLY space 9 on each cookie sheet.
- Bake for 12-18 minutes, rotating front to back and top to bottom after 8 minutes.
- Cool on sheets to maintain chewy texture.
KITTENCAL'S JUMBO CHEWY BAKERY-STYLE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
Yes, finally a cookie that really does taste just like the ones sold at the bakery! --- these taste almost similar to Pillsbury chocolate chip cookie dough (the dough that is wrapped in a tube-like shape) but this is better! The dough amount may be reduced to make about 40 (one-heaping tablespoonful) smaller cookies, be aware that baking times will need to be slightly reduced for smaller cookies--- NOTE do not double the recipe in one bowl it will not have the same texture if your going to double make two separate recipes in two bowls --- you will love these cookies!

Steps:
- Grease a cookie/baking sheet/s (or line the pan with parchment paper).
- In a bowl mix together the flour with the next 3 dry ingredients.
- In a mixing bowl using an electric mixer at medium speed beat the melted butter with maple extract and both sugars until blended.
- Add in the whole egg and yolk; continue beating until the mixture resembles a thick caramel texture (about 3-4 minutes, the color of the mixture should lighten up slightly).
- Add in the flour mixture and beat until just blended.
- Mix in chocolate chips and nuts.
- If you find that the dough is too soft place in refrigerator for 2 hours.
- Set oven to 350°F.
- Drop about 1/4-cup of the dough onto the baking sheet spacing about 3" apart.
- For jumbo cookies bake for about 12-15 minutes or until the edges are just slightly browned, for smaller cookies bake 8-10 minutes.
- Cool on baking sheet for about 5 minutes then transfer to wire racks.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate chips. The better the chocolate, the better the cookies will taste. Look for chocolate chips that are made with real cocoa butter and have a high cacao content.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies spread less and will give them a chewier texture.
- Bake the cookies at a high temperature. Baking the cookies at a high temperature will help them develop a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
- Don't overbake the cookies. Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly. Bake the cookies just until they are set.

These bakery-style chewy chocolate chip cookies are the perfect treat for any occasion. They're easy to make and always a hit with friends and family. With just a few simple tips, you can make these cookies like a pro. So what are you waiting for? Get baking!
