    Two Huge Chocolate Chip Cookies

    Just two chocolate chip cookies - lightly crisp around the edge, and dense and buttery through the middle. They are thick enough to sink your teeth into and just really, really good.

    • 3 tablespoons packed brown sugar
    • 1 1/2 tablespoons white sugar
    • 0.25 teaspoon vanilla
    • 1 egg yolk
    • 0.33 cup + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (~60 grams, see note 1)
    • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
    • 0.25 teaspoon baking soda
    • 0.25 teaspoon kosher salt
    • 0.25 cup chocolate chips

    Instructions

    1. 1

      Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

    2. 2

      Mix butter, sugars, vanilla, and egg yolk until combined. 

    3. 3

      Stir in flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt. When a soft dough has formed, stir in the chocolate chips.

    4. 4

      Roll the dough into two balls and place on a baking sheet there should be plenty for two large cookies plus a little bit of dough for a snack. (You're welcome.) You can add more chocolate chips to the top of the cookies if you want.

    5. 5

      Bake for 10-12 minutes, depending on your oven temp and desired level of gooey cookie center. 

    6. 6

      Rest the cookies for a few minutes so they settle down and solidify a bit  I set a timer for 10-15 minutes and just let them rest right on the pan. At that point they should be able to transfer to a plate, or maybe even held in your hand, for warm, delicious eating on the couch. Yum, yum, yum.
