Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

I have looking around for a good recipe for chewy chocolate chips cookies and I think I have found the one! I have always preferred my cookies to have the soft and chewy texture as compared to those cakey ones and I have tried a few recipes and it just turns out too cakey. The previous recipe I tried before all calls for light brown sugar. But this recipe is using dark brown sugar, which makes the cookies moist. Can you see the moisture in the cookies? And the melted chocolate chips oozing out. Heavenly.

 

Ingredients

2 3/4 cup flour

1 tsp salt

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp baking powder

2 1/2 stick butter

1 3/4 cup Dark brown sugar

1/4 cup granulated sugar

2 Eggs

2 tsp vanilla extract

2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

 

1. Mix the flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder. Set aside.

 

2. Cream butter and sugars on medium speed until fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time then add vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low and mix in the flour mixture until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips by hand.

 

3. Cover with plastic wrap and set in the fridge for at least an hour, but overnight is best.

 

 

4. Preheat oven to 375 deg F (190 Deg C) and line cookie sheets with a baking mat. I used a ice cream scoop to measure out the batter and left them as balls.

 

They indeed looked like ice creams!

 

 

5. Bake for 10 - 14 minutes depending on your oven until the edges are golden and the middles are still soft. 

 

6. Let cookies cool on the cookie sheet for 8 minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack.

Enjoy!
