Description
Experience the magic of bakery-style baking with these massive, six-ounce chocolate chip cookies. Featuring crisp edges, gooey centers, and premium milk chocolate, these oversized treats are the ultimate indulgence for any cookie lover.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups salted butter, softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 ½ cups brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 4 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups Guittard milk chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F and prepare your baking sheets.
- In a stand mixer, cream together the softened salted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Incorporate the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until the dough is light in color and creamy.
- Add the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt, mixing just until the white streaks disappear and the dough is thick.
- Gently fold in the milk chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the heavy dough.
- Portion out 1/2 cup of dough for each cookie, roll into a ball, then rip in half and press back together with the craggy, jagged edges facing up.
- Arrange six cookies per sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until edges are golden; let cool on the pan for 20 minutes to firm up.
Notes
To achieve the signature textured top, ensure you do not over-handle the dough after ripping it apart. Using high-quality milk chocolate chips like Guittard is essential for that authentic bakery flavor, and always remember to pull the cookies out when the centers still look slightly underbaked to maintain a soft texture as they will continue to set on the hot pan.
