moms chocolate chip cookies

I have been making these chocolate chip cookies for years! They never disappoint, you can even add to them to spice them up for whatever time of year you are in. Sometimes ill add m&m's, nuts, dried fruit, etc. They always taste amazing & you probably have everything you need to make them right in your kitchen. 

My kiddos LOVE these. They are a great staple recipe in our home. Its a reliable and very tried and true recipe! 

ENJOY!

Ingredients:
​
2 and 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 and 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon salt
1.5 sticks  unsalted butter, melted
3/4 cup  packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup  granulated sugar
1 large egg + 1 egg yolk, at room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup  semi-sweet chocolate chips or chocolate chunks

Directions:

1. Whisk the flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt together in a large bowl. Set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until no brown sugar lumps remain. Whisk in the egg, then the egg yolk. Finally, whisk in the vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix together. The dough will be very soft, yet thick. Fold in the chocolate chunks. They may not stick to the dough because of the melted butter, but do your best to combine them. 
3. Preheat oven to 325°F 
4. Roll the dough into balls, about 3 Tablespoons of dough each. The dough will be crumbly, but the warmth of your hands will help the balls stay together. Roll the cookie dough balls to be taller rather than wide, to ensure the cookies will bake up to be thick.  
5. Bake the cookies for 12-13 minutes. The cookies will look very soft and underbaked. They will continue to bake on the cookie sheet. 

Grab a glass of milk & enjoy!
