These are the perfect bakery style Chocolate Chip Cookies. Buttery, rich, sugary crisp on the outside and soft in the middle.
Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients
- 120 g unsalted butter
- 140 g granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon fancy molasses
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp vanilla paste
- 1 egg
- 240 g plain flour
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 170 g chocolate chunks
- Sea salt flakes
Instructions
- Beat together the butter and sugar using a hand mixer until well combined and creamy. Add the vanilla extract and paste, then the egg and beat in well.
- Sift together the flour and baking soda, add to the mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until it just comes together into a dough. Fold in the chocolate pieces, then chill overnight, or for up to 72 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350F (180C). Line two baking trays with parchment paper, and divide the mixture into golf-ball sized rounds (about a tablespoon each), spacing them well apart. Bake for about 15 minutes, until golden.
- Sprinkle lightly with sea salt if using, and allow to cool on the tray for a couple of minutes, before moving to a wire rack to cool completely.
- If you prefer your cookies a little bit crunchier, increase the heat to 380F (190C) and bake for 14 minutes.
- If you don’t use salt to sprinkle, either use salted butter or add 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the cookie dough.
