Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookies

5 from 4 reviews

Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookies are chewy on the inside, crispy on the edges, and loaded with chocolate!

Ingredients

Scale

1 cup cold butter cut into chunks

3/4 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup white sugar

2 eggs

1 tsp vanilla

2 1/2 cups all purpose flour

1/4 cup cornstarch

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp kosher salt

3 to 4 cups chocolate chips!

sprinkles of sea salt optional, but highly recommended

Instructions

Preheat oven.  I used convection bake at 400.  For conventional ovens, increase the temp by 25, or increase your bake time.

Blend butter and both sugars in stand mixer until well incorporated and lightened, approximately 3 minutes.  Add eggs and vanilla.  Mix dry ingredients (flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt) separately, and then add to the butter mixture.  Stir in chocolate chips.  Using a large ice cream scoop, portion out cookies onto parchment lined cookie sheets.  Bake on middle rack of preheated oven for about 8 minutes until set and golden brown on the edges.  Remove from oven and let cool on cookie sheet for 5-10 minutes before transferring to a rack to cool completely.

Notes

*Convection bake, or a high temperature bake, sets and browns the cookies quickly, but leaves the center soft.

*This recipe makes about 1 dozen oversized cookies.

*I recommend microwaving any leftover cookies for 10-15 seconds to restore them to that “freshly baked” condition.
