Calories: 359kcal
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups unsalted butter (3 sticks), softened
- 2 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 large egg yolks
- 3 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- 2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 24 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (2 bags)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Place the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl and beat on medium-high speed until very pale and fluffy (3 to 5 minutes minimum).
- Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla, beating until completely incorporated.
- Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl with a silicone spatula, then add the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt, stirring on medium-low speed just until all the ingredients are combined (do not over-mix).
- Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Use a 1/4-cup scoop to drop balls of cookie dough onto the prepared sheets, allowing about two inches in between (for spreading).
- Bake (one sheet at a time) on the center rack of the oven until set around the edges and just barely beginning to turn golden (approx. 8 to 12 minutes).
- Cool completely on the baking sheet, then transfer to an air-tight container for storage.
