Crisp and Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Crisp and Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Cookie people take sides. You're either a soft-and-chewy fan or a lover of thin and crisp. But everyone goes for these chocolate chip treats. They're soft in the middle, slightly crunchy at the edges, and extra-big.

  • Yield Makes 20

Ingredients

    • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • 1 teaspoon baking soda
    • 2 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
    • 1 1/4 cups packed dark-brown sugar
    • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
    • 2 large eggs
    • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
    • 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

  1. Sift together flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat butter and sugars with a mixer on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Beat in eggs 1 at a time. Add vanilla. Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture; beat until combined. Mix in chocolate chips.
  3. Using a 2 1/4-inch ice cream scoop (about 3 tablespoons), drop dough onto parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart. Bake until golden around edges but soft in the middle, about 15 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack, and let cool completely.

Cook's Note

Dough can be refrigerated for up to 5 days. Cookies can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days.
