Best 6 Next Level Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipes

NEXT LEVEL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a small saucepan until sizzling. Watch it carefully - the butter will foam, and, when the foam subsides, it will turn from yellow to a hazelnut brown. At this point, remove from the heat, tip into a bowl and leave to cool. Meanwhile, mix the flours, salt, baking powder and bicarb together in a bowl and set aside.
• When the butter is cool, tip in the sugars and beat with a wooden spoon to combine. Add the egg, yolks and vanilla and beat together. Scrape the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until it all comes together into a dough. Fold in the chocolate, then chill for at least 3 hrs, or until firm. Will keep chilled for up to 24 hrs.
• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line two large baking sheets with baking parchment. Separate the dough into 12 pieces, weighing for accuracy if you like. Roll each piece into a ball using your hands, then put six balls on each sheet, leaving space between them for spreading. Bake for 10 mins, then, one sheet at a time, remove from the oven, sprinkle with some sea salt and slam the sheet hard against your work surface.
• Bake for another 3 mins, then repeat the slamming of the sheet. Bake for 3 mins more. This timing will give you soft cookies, but if you prefer them a bit firmer, cook for a few minutes longer. Leave to cool on the sheets for 10 mins before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

JACQUES TORRES CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE

Steps:

• Sift together cake flour, bread flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into a medium sized bowl and set aside. #SpoonTip: Try to use a digital food scale to measure out the ounces of the flours.
• In the bowl of an electronic mixer, cream together butter and sugars until light and fluffy (approx. 3-5 minutes).
• Add in eggs, one at a time, until combined, scraping down the bowl as needed. Then add in vanilla and mix.
• Gradually add in the dry ingredients and mix until JUST moistened. #SpoonTip: Don't overbeat.
• Fold in chocolate until evenly mixed through the dough. #SpoonTip: Chocolate disks or fèves are sold at Jacques Torres Chocolate or at Whole Foods under the Valrhona brand. If you can't find/afford these, good chopped up dark chocolate baking bars work well also. Try to stay away from using only chocolate chips since the emulsifiers in the chips lead to less melty, chocolatey fun.
• Press plastic wrap against the dough, making sure it is completely covered, and refrigerate for at least 24 hours, or as long as 72 hours.
• When you are ready to bake, bring the dough to room temperature (around 1 or 2 hours thawing) and preheat oven to 350°F.
• Scoop out 2 tablespoon balls of cookie dough onto lined and/or greased baking sheets. #SpoonTip: Don't press the cookie dough down flat, let it stay the way it is.
• Lightly sprinkle cookies with a little bit of fleur de sel or sea salt. Bake 10-12 minutes for smaller cookies and 18-20 minutes for larger cookies, or until the cookie is golden brown and set on the edges.
• Allow the cookies to cool slightly on the baking sheet before moving them to a different surface to cool completely. Store in an airtight container and enjoy!

LEMON LIME WHITE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Add the flour, baking soda and salt to a medium bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside.
• Add the butter and sugars to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Cream the butter and sugar together until lighter in color and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes, scraping down the bowl as needed. Add the egg and beat until incorporated. Add the lemon zest, lime zest and vanilla extract. Beat until evenly combined. Add the dry ingredients to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until just incorporated. Remove the bowl from the stand mixer and fold the chocolate chips in with a rubber spatula.
• Use a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop to scoop the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, keeping them 2 inches apart. Fill each tray with 12 to 16 cookies, then bake until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still soft, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Repeat the process with the remaining dough. Alternatively, the cookie dough can be wrapped in plastic wrap and frozen for up to 1 month.

THROWDOWN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment or silicone pads.
• Whisk together the flour, salt and baking soda in a bowl. Place the butter in the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the sugars and continue mixing, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes longer. Add the eggs, one at a time, and the vanilla extract. Add half of the flour mixture and mix until just incorporated. Add the remaining flour mixture, again mixing until just combined. Remove the bowl from the stand and fold in the chocolate chunks.
• Using a small ice cream scoop, spoon the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 2 inches between each cookie, and bake on the middle rack until the cookies are lightly golden brown and still soft in the middle, about 11 minutes. Let the cookies rest for 2 minutes on the baking sheets before removing them to a baking rack with a wide metal spatula. Let the cookies cool on the baking rack for a few minutes before eating. Repeat with the remaining dough.

ORIGINAL NESTLE® TOLL HOUSE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Combine flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in morsels and nuts. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.
• Bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on baking sheets for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.

PERFECT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Put the butter and both sugars in a stand mixer or mixing bowl. Cream together using a paddle attachment on medium speed, a handheld electric whisk or a wooden spoon for 1 to 2 minutes until paler but not fluffy. (Do not mix for too long; if you beat the mixture until super light and fluffy, that will cause the cookie to deflate later when cooking.)
• Add the egg and beat over medium speed until evenly combined.
• In a separate bowl, mix together the dry ingredients (all the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt), then fold into the butter mixture using a rubber spatula until combined.
• Add the chopped chocolate and fold into the dough until evenly distributed.
• Immediately scoop out heaping 1/4-cup portions (about 60 grams), roll into balls and place on two baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 12 hours. (If space is tight, you can condense them on one sheet before refrigerating then redistribute among two sheets before baking.)
• The next day, heat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Make sure the dough balls are evenly spaced out among two baking sheets, as they will spread. Bake the cookies for 13 minutes (or 15 minutes if baking from frozen), until the cookies are puffed and golden at the edges. You want the middle to be ever so slightly not-quite set.
• Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet; they will continue firming up as they cool. Once cooled, eat! (These cookies will keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days. The balls of dough will keep for up to 2 days in the fridge or 2 weeks in the freezer.)
