Ingredients
Scale
For the Dough:
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup cake flour
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter (cubed)
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar (packed)
- 1/4 cup white granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
- 2 cups milk chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cake flour, baking soda, baking powder, cornstarch, and salt. Set aside.
- Place the cubed butter into the bowl of a stand mixer and secure the paddle attachment. Turn the mixer to medium-low and cream the butter for 30 seconds.
- Add in the brown sugar and mix for 30 seconds. Follow with the white sugar and mix for another 30 seconds, until light and fluffy.
- Add the egg and egg yolk, mixing until well combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Gradually add the dry flour mixture, a little at a time, mixing on low speed until fully incorporated.
- Add in the chocolate chips and mix just until combined. Turn off the mixer.
- Use a food scale to measure out 6 cookies, each weighing about 5.7 oz. Alternatively, you can eye-ball the size. Keep the cookies tall—do not flatten them.
- Place the dough balls onto a cookie sheet, spacing them apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown. Be sure to remove them a little before you think they are done for a gooey center.
- Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 15-30 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Room temperature ingredients (especially butter and eggs) work best for this recipe.
- Don’t overmix the dough. Stop once the flour is fully incorporated.
- The cookies will be golden brown around the edges but soft in the center when done.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.
