These cookies are so delicious! My new favorite chocolate chip cookies. I was telling my husband I should send some home with my friend who is coming over, and he told me "NO!" LOL.
Ingredients
2 cups plus two teaspoons of unbleached, all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted and cooled until warm
1 cup packed light or dark brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg plus 1 egg yolk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 - 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
1. Adjust the oven racks to the upper and lower middle positions and heat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper or spray them with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl, and set aside.
3. Either by hand or with electric mixer, mix the butter and sugars until thoroughly blended. Beat in the egg, yolk, and vanilla until combined. Add the dry ingredients and beat at low speed until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips to taste.
4. Roll a scant 1/4 cup of the dough into a ball. Hold the dough ball with the fingertips of both hands and pull into 2 equal halves. Rotate the halves 90 degrees and with jagged surfaces facing up, join the halves together at their base, forming a single ball, being careful not to smooth the dough's uneven surface. Place the formed dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, jagged surface up, spreading them 2 1/2 inches apart.
5. Bake until the cookies are light golden brown and the outer edges start to harden, yet the centers are still soft and puffy, 15 to 18 minutes, rotating the baking sheets front to back and top to bottom halfway through the baking time. Cool the cookies on sheets, remove the cooled cookies from the sheets with a side metal spatula.
*I just used a tablespoonful of dough and baked for 14 minutes, or until as described.
