PERFECT CHOCOLATE CHIP 🍪 COOKIES ✨ Stop what you’re doing and make these beauties immediately 🤪 They are chewy, crispy, gooey perfection in my eyes! This is a fine tuning of a recipe I’ve been using for years - my old version was in cup measurements so I’ve switched to grams here as it’s easier to be more precise with. It’s important to follow the key steps here Eg chilling the dough is essential, as is banging the air out. They are absolutely worth the effort I promise you 👌🏻 Hope you enjoy them as much as I do 💛 • •
MAKES 12 - 14 large cookies
280g plain flour
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp cornflour
1 flat tsp bicarbonate soda
200g light brown sugar
100g caster sugar
1 medium egg
200g butter
2 tsp vanilla extract
250g chocolate chips or chopped up chocolate
Combine the flour, salt, cornflour & bicarbonate soda in a mixing bowl. I whisk it to make sure it’s all mixed well. Melt the butter in the microwave in a Pyrex dish. Add the sugar to the melted butter and whisk. Add the vanilla and egg and whisk again. Mix into the dry ingredients. If the dough is warm let it cool slightly, then add the chocolate chips. Scoop in to large ice cream scoop sized balls (impt) and place on a cling film lined plate. Cover & Let chill in the fridge for 1 - 2 hours, with 2 hours being the most preferable if you have time. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius fan. Pop the chilled dough balls to a baking paper lined tray. Allow for a lot of space in between these as they spread a lot, I normally bake 4 at a time. Bake for approx 10-12 minutes, banging the air out half way through cooking on a hard surface. (10 mins will be gooey, 12 will be more set) Let cool & enjoy. • • Note - these freeze perfectly for up to 3 months. Just place the raw dough in a ziplock bag once portioned out into balls and chilled. To bake, let them thaw at room temp for an hour then bake as usual.
