Introduction: Chocolate Chip Cookies
Want to make some good chocolate chip cookies well hears how you will need for a batch of 12 cookies
½ cup granulated sugar(100 g)¾ cup brown sugar(165 g), packed1 teaspoon salt½ cup unsalted butter(115 g), melted1 egg1 teaspoon vanilla extract1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour(155 g)½ teaspoon baking soda4 oz milk or semi-sweet chocolate chunks(110 g)4 oz dark chocolate chunk(110 g), or your preference
Step 1:
In a large bowl, whisk together the sugars, salt, and butter until a paste forms with no lumps.
Step 2:
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.
Step 3:
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).
Step 4:
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.
Step 5:
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 6:
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.
Step 7:
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges have started to barely brown.
