CLASSIC CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Small changes can make a big difference. We took our basic chocolate chip cookie and made one isolated change at a time. We added, swapped, melted, baked low, baked high and chilled. But mostly we had fun. And with each slight tweak we made a new cookie with a different texture, look and taste from the last. Use our guide as a way to find the perfect cookie for you. No big changes necessary.

Time 1h35m

Yield about 30 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon fine salt
1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
2/3 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
One 12-ounce bag semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Position oven racks in the top and bottom thirds of the oven, and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
  • Whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Beat the butter and both sugars with an electric mixer on medium-high speed in a second large bowl until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the eggs to the butter mixture, one at time, beating after each addition to incorporate; beat in the vanilla. Reduce the speed to medium, add the flour mixture, and beat until just incorporated. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Scoop 12 heaping tablespoons of dough onto each prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Roll each into a ball with slightly wet hands. Bake until the cookies are golden but still soft in the center, 12 to 15 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through. Let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer them to a rack to cool completely.
  • When the baking sheets have cooled completely, scoop the remaining dough onto 1 sheet and bake. Store the cookies in a tightly sealed container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • Variations:
  • For cakey cookies: Replace the light brown sugar and granulated sugar with 1 1/2 cups dark brown sugar. Bake at 375 degrees F until golden and tender, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • For crispy-cakey cookies: Bake the cookies at 425 degrees F until golden and crunchy on the outside, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • For chewy cookies: Use 1 cup light brown sugar and 1/4 cup corn syrup and omit the granulated sugar. Bake at 375 degrees F until golden and crunchy on the outside, and chewy on the inside, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • For super-chewy cookies: Substitute cake flour for all-purpose flour. Bake at 375 degrees F until golden with caramelized edges, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • For extra-crispy cookies: Bake the cookies at 300 degrees F until flat and crunchy, 24 to 28 minutes.

CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES - BETTY CROCKER'S 1969 RECIPE



Chocolate Chip Cookies - Betty Crocker's 1969 Recipe image

My mom has used this recipe for 40 years now and it is the best chocolate chip cookie recipe I have ever had. The cookie is crisp around the edges and yet chewy at the same time. I will occasionally omit the nuts due to food allergies for those I'm feeding. I get alot of people questioning how all my cookies are the same size, I'm old school and will still use a teaspoon or tablespoon and my fingers to slide the cookie dough off the spoon. No need for fancy ice cream scoops if you don't want to. :) This will surely become a favorite of yours once you give it a try....

Time 18m

Yield 7 Dozen

Number Of Ingredients 11

2/3 cup shortening
2/3 cup butter or 2/3 cup margarine, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar (packed)
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans recommended)
1 (12 ounce) package semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Mix thorougly shortening, butter, sugars, eggs, and vanilla.
  • Stir in remaining ingredients.
  • Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
  • Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until light brown.
  • Cool slightly before removing from baking sheet.
  • *If using self-rising flour, omit baking soda and salt.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate chips: This will make a big difference in the taste of your cookies. Look for chocolate chips that are made with a high percentage of cocoa solids (70% or higher) and that are free of artificial flavors and preservatives.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined and no more.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookies to keep their shape and will also make them chewier.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The ideal temperature for baking chocolate chip cookies is 375 degrees Fahrenheit. If you bake them at a lower temperature, they will be too soft and may not brown properly. If you bake them at a higher temperature, they will be too crispy and may burn.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them: This will help them to keep their shape and will also prevent them from sticking together.

Conclusion:

Chocolate chip cookies are a classic American treat that everyone loves. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. By following these tips, you can make the best chocolate chip cookies that you have ever tasted.
