THE BEST CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



The Best Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies image

We skipped the white sugar and went all in with dark brown sugar, which gives our cookies the ideal chewiness and perfect level of sweetness. Paired with the right amount of semisweet chocolate chips, this treat is a definite winner. The recipe makes a lot of cookies, but in our opinion, this is never a problem!

Time 1h15m

Yield 3 1/2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 1/2 teaspoons fine salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
1 3/4 cups packed dark brown sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
One 12-ounce bag semisweet chocolate chips (about 2 cups)

Steps:

  • Sift the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda into a large bowl.
  • Beat the butter and brown sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 4 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. (Use the paddle attachment for a stand mixer.) Beat in the eggs one at a time, then beat in the vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low. Add the dry ingredients and beat until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips by hand.
  • Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the dough and refrigerate at least 1 hour or preferably overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Use a 1-ounce ice cream scoop to scoop half the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart. Chill the remaining dough while you bake the first batch.
  • Bake at 375 degrees until the cookies are golden around the edges but still soft in the middle, 12 to 15 minutes. Let the cookies cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Cool the baking sheets completely, then line with parchment paper and repeat the scooping and baking process with the remaining dough.

THE BEST CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES RECIPE BY TASTY



The Best Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe by Tasty image

There are a few secrets to the best classic, chewy chocolate chip cookies. Number one: Don't use chips; instead, opt for a mix of milk or semisweet and dark chocolate chunks. The second is to let the dough rest overnight or longer for a more complex, toffee-like flavor. Lastly, use an ice cream scooper to get even-sized cookies every time. And that's it! With these little tweaks, the result is a cookie that's textured on the outside, and soft and gooey on the inside. Absolutely perfect!

Provided by Alvin Zhou

Categories     Desserts

Time 1h5m

Yield 12 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ cup granulated sugar
¾ cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon salt
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
4 oz milk or semi-sweet chocolate chunks
4 oz dark chocolate chunk, or your preference

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the sugars, salt, and butter until a paste forms with no lumps.
  • Whisk in the egg and vanilla, beating until light ribbons fall off the whisk and remain for a short while before falling back into the mixture.
  • Sift in the flour and baking soda, then fold the mixture with a spatula (Be careful not to overmix, which would cause the gluten in the flour to toughen resulting in cakier cookies).
  • Fold in the chocolate chunks, 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.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Scoop the dough with an ice-cream scoop onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, leaving at least 4 inches (10 cm) of space between cookies and 2 inches (5 cm) 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 before serving.
  • Enjoy!

BANANA-CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Banana-Chocolate Chip Cookies image

Saw this recipe by Cary Neff of the Miraval Spa on the Oprah show. It is supposed to be a more healthy alternative to the 'purist' chocolate chip cookie. I made these but was skeptical that the purists around me would eat them. They did. Had to hide them to save them for a dinner gathering. These are moist and chewy and the banana taste didn't seem to be overpowering. I used all-purpose flour as I couldn't see going out to buy another type of flour (already have 3 different kinds at home) just to make these. We will have these again. I didn't get 8 dozen cookies but mine may have been larger than the recipe intends.

Time 30m

Yield 8 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce or 1/2 cup prune puree
1 cup raw sugar (Turbinado)
3 medium ripe bananas, mashed
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
2 cups quick-cooking oats
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Coat 2 baking sheets with cooking spray.
  • In mixing bowl, combine butter and applesauce, beating with an electric mixer until creamy.
  • Add sugar, bananas, eggs and vanilla, beating until smooth.
  • Gradually add flour and baking soda.
  • Stir in oats and chocolate chips.
  • Drop teaspoonfuls onto baking sheets.
  • Bake 7-10 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Cool on a wire rack.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cookies will be.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients 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 until they are just set: Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly. Bake until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before eating: The cookies will continue to harden as they cool.

Conclusion:

These chewy banana chocolate chip cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for any occasion, and they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you have a craving for something sweet, give these cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
