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!

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!

HOW TO MAKE PERFECT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES RECIPE BY TASTY



How To Make Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: bread flour, all-purpose flour, kosher salt, baking soda, unsalted butter, water, dark brown sugar, white sugar, vanilla extract, espresso powder, large egg, large egg yolk, semi-sweet chocolate chips, dark chocolate

Provided by Scott Loitsch

Categories     Desserts

Time 56m

Yield 18 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup bread flour
¾ cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons kosher salt, or 1½ teaspoons table salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup unsalted butter, 2 sticks
2 tablespoons water, room temperature
1 cup dark brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon espresso powder
1 large egg
1 large egg yolk
½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
5 oz dark chocolate, chopped

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, sift together the flours, salt, and baking soda. Set aside.
  • In a medium or large saucepan, add the butter and melt over medium heat. The larger the pan you use, the quicker the process will be!
  • Bring the butter to a boil, stirring frequently. As the water begins to boil out of the butter, the milk solids in the butter will separate, sink to the bottom, and begin to toast and brown. As this begins to happen, make sure to stir constantly so the butter browns evenly. It may become quite foamy, splatter a bit, and be difficult to see, so keep a close eye on it, removing from heat and continuing to stir if it starts to foam over.
  • Once the butter has turned a nice nutty brown, remove from the heat and pour into a large liquid measuring cup to stop the cooking. Allow it to cool down for a minute or two, give it a stir, and carefully add 2-3 tablespoons of water to the butter to bring it back up to 1 cup (240 ml) of liquid.
  • Set aside to cool to room temperature. To help speed this process up, you can place in the fridge for 10-15 minutes. You want to make sure the butter is still liquid when you're adding it to the dough later on, so make sure to remove after 15 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, add the sugars, vanilla, espresso powder, and cooled brown butter. Cream together with an electric hand mixer until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the egg and yolk and beat until incorporated.
  • Add the dry ingredients, about ⅓ of the mixture at a time, and beat between additions until just incorporated. It's okay for there to be a bit of unmixed flour on the edge of bowl, this will be incorporated in the next step.
  • Using a wooden spoon, fold the chocolate chips and chunks into the dough
  • Scoop the cookies onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet in 3-tablespoon-sized mounds.
  • For optimal flavor, cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or, even better, overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
  • Evenly space the dough 3 inches (8 cm) apart from one another on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  • Bake in a preheated oven for 12-14 minutes.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Enjoy!

Time 1h10m

Yield Makes about 3 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips (2 cups)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F with racks in the upper and lower third positions. In a small bowl, whisk together flour and baking soda; set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and both sugars on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add salt, vanilla, and eggs; mix to combine. Reduce speed to low and gradually add flour mixture, mixing until just combined. Mix in chocolate chips.
  • Using a tablespoon measure, drop heaping portions of dough about 2 inches apart on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake until cookies are golden around the edges, but still soft in the center, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven, and let cool on baking sheet 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack and let cool completely. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate chips: The quality of your chocolate chips will make a big difference in the flavor of your cookies. Look for chips that are made with real chocolate and have a high cocoa content.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make your cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined and then stop.
  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough before baking will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The ideal temperature for baking chocolate chip cookies is 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
  • Don't overbake the cookies: Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly. Bake them just until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.

Conclusion:

Chocolate chip cookies are a classic dessert that everyone loves. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect chocolate chip cookies every time. So next time you're in the mood for a sweet treat, give this recipe a try.
