Yield 16 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

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

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets or line with parchment paper. Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the cookies will be. Use real butter, not margarine, and use good-quality chocolate chips.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature: Baking the cookies at a high temperature will help them rise and create a chewy texture.
  • Don't overbake the cookies: Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly. Bake the cookies just until they are golden brown around the edges.
