Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed dark-brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 large whole egg, plus 1 large egg white
  • 12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips (about 2 cups)

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and both sugars on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.

Add vanilla, whole egg, and egg white. Beat on low speed until well combined, scraping down sides of the bowl as needed, about 1 minute. Add flour mixture in two batches; mix until just combined. Mix in chocolate chips.

Shape 2 heaping tablespoons of dough at a time into balls and place about 1 1/2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until cookies are golden brown, about 18 minutes. Transfer parchment and cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

                These are delicious, crispy cookies and so easy to make!!  I used the exact ingredients, but instead of making them with 2 heaping tablespoons as recipe calls for, I used my Oxo medium cookie scoop that holds 1 1/2 tablespoons of dough.  So slightly smaller cookies and greater yield (44 cookies vs. 36).  I placed 11 cookies per baking sheet (4/3/4) which left enough space in between.  And because the dough mounds were smaller, I baked for 16 minutes total (not 18) and rotated half way through.  I also chilled dough briefly to make scooping easier, and left cookies on sheet for a few minutes before placing on rack to cool.  This is a GREAT recipe for crispy chocolate chip cookies!!

                My new favorite!  I didn't have unsalted butter, so I  put a half tsp salt instead of a whole.  I also added a half cup of flour and only baked for 11 minutes.  They are flat, but really tasty!

                Size might be a bit too big for me.. The bigger they look, the closer they get to supermarket's ones! I wanna be able to make the difference and the people that I bake them for too! ;P

                So, so yummy.  Made them for my other half who's a chocolate chip cookie fiend! He loved them!  I second the other commenter's inquiry about the "heaping tablespoons of dough".  Made absolutely HUGE cookies.  Other half loved that they were so huge, me not so much, lol.  If I were to make them again (which I definetely will) I would very much disregard that tidbit and make them smaller. (Following that direction, it made only 18 large cookies, versus the smaller 36 as it says here.)

                these are so good.  I've made them several times to rave reviews.  They're good and crispy but still tender.  Also a little on the rich side.  I may try to make them into ice cream sandwiches this summer.

                The directions in step 3 to "shape 2 heaping tablespoons of dough at a time.." I thought that each cookie needed to have 2 tablespoons of dough.  This created very large cookies and I had to cook longer so they were overcooked.  Anyway, after I realized that they only needed 1 tablespoon I cooked another batch, and cooked them on 350 degrees(since 375 was too hot) and they were absolutely delicious.  The edges were a beautiful brown, the middle was perfect, and they were buttery tasting.

                I will try this recipe.  Usually I will use the Toll House recipe on the back of  the chocolate chip bag from  Nestle.  I used the four dozen cookies on Sunday for an annual bowl-a-thon that I co-organize for the pediatric wing of our local hospital.  My cookies are always crunchy.  How do you make soft cookies?
