Big Chocolate Chip Cookies Ingredients

-Butter: We need 1 cup (two sticks) of butter to get a rich and flavorful cookie.

-Sugars: Using 1 cup of brown sugar and 1/3 cup of granulated sugar we can get sweet cookies with chewy edges that are packed with flavor.

-Eggs: We need 1 whole egg and one additional egg white to get help us bind the dough together for a great texture.

-Flour: 2 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour will be the base of this cookie dough recipe.

-Vanilla: We need 1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla for a flavorful cookie.

-Cornstarch: Adding 1 tablespoon of cornstarch into the cookie dough helps to make it soft and fabulous.

-Leavening Agents: To help our cookies puff up nicely we need to use 1 teaspoon each of baking powder and baking soda.

-Salt: To enhance the flavors in this recipe, we need 1/2 teaspoon of salt added to the dough.

-Chocolate Chips: We want to use 2 cups of mini chocolate chips so that there’s plenty of chocolate in every bite. This is about the amount found in an 8 ounce bag. You can also use multiple sizes of chocolate chips if you’d like- I love adding some Jumbo chips!

Nutrition

How do I know if my cookies are finished baking?

When you remove your cookies from the oven the edges should look set but the tops should look slightly underdone. As the cookie cools on the baking sheet, the heat will help to slowly finish the cooking process. This will result in a soft cookie that’s absolutely perfect.

How long are big chocolate chip cookies good for?

Assuming you don’t eat them all right away, you can keep your cookies stored in an airtight container for about 2-3 weeks. I recommend eating them sooner rather than later to avoid a possible stale cookie. Eating them warm with a glass of milk is ideal. Yum!
