Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 & 1/4 cups (162g) all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1/2 cup (100g) packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper and set them aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a large bowl. Whisk until smooth.
  4. Add the room-temperature egg and the vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mix. Whisk until smooth.
  5. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until nearly combined, then fold in the chocolate chips.
  6. Using a large 2 oz cookie scoop, portion dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 3 inches between each cookie.
  7. Wedge a few additional chocolate chips into the top of each dough ball if desired.
  8. Bake in the center of the oven for 10-12 minutes until puffed up with golden brown edges.
  9. Take the trays out and shape the cookies if needed. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
