Yield Makes about 3 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 cups (about 12 ounces) semisweet and/or milk chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda; set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the butter with both sugars; beat on medium speed until light and fluffy. Reduce speed to low; add the salt, 1/4 cup water, vanilla, and eggs. Beat until well mixed, about 1 minute. Add flour mixture; mix until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Drop heaping tablespoon-size balls of dough about 2 inches apart on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake until cookies are golden brown 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven, and let cool on baking sheet 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack, and let cool completely. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.

THIN & CRISP CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Thin & Crisp Chocolate Chip Cookies image

This recipe is from Fine Cooking. These are so buttery, crisp and delicious! The key to the crispness is the ratio of more white sugar than brown, the proportion of butter to the rest of the ingredients, and the fact that the butter and egg are at room temperature (the butter is soft). Edited 5/22/06: I added tips in step 10 and 11 to help make sure they turn out thin and crispy. Another tip might be to warm the cookie sheet before adding the dough (I don't do this, though). Maybe the tips will help. As you can see in the picture, mine come out thin, and I think they're very buttery and crispy. Chocolate chip cookies were first served at the Tollhouse Inn in Massachusetts.

Time 20m

Yield 72 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 ounces unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs, room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour (13.5 oz)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (I like the Ghirardelli double chocolate chips)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375° and place racks in middle and top levels of the oven.
  • Beat together the butter and sugars on high mixer speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.
  • Scrape bowl and paddle beater.
  • Add eggs and vanilla, and beat on low until incorporated.
  • Then beat on high for about 1 minute until light and fluffy again.
  • Scrape bowl and paddle again.
  • In a separate medium size bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking soda.
  • Add this to the butter mixture and beat on medium until just blended.
  • Stir in chocolate chips with a wooden spoon.
  • Drop rounded teaspoons of dough 2-inches apart onto the greased cookie sheets. Tip - don't make these larger - larger amounts of dough won't flatten well.
  • Bake until deep golden brown around the edges, and lightly golden in the center- about 8-10 minutes, rotating the sheets after about 4 minutes to get more even results. Tip - when you rotate the sheets after 4 minutes, check to see if the cookies have flattened well. If not, shake the pan gently to spread the dough and flatten a little more. Then, contine to bake until brown and crisp.
  • Remove from the oven and let rest 3-5 minutes before transferring the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

THIN-AND-CRISP CHOCOLATE-CHIP COOKIES



Thin-and-Crisp Chocolate-Chip Cookies image

Chocolate-chip cookies tend to spark the kind of tense debate usually reserved for topics like religion and politics. Opinions on various brands abound, but an excellent recipe is the key to baked good paradise. This recipe, one of three that were extensively tested, is for a golden brown emblem of cookie engineering. Note that in this crisp version the ingredients include milk and light corn syrup, and the balls of dough are quite small. This version also calls for what might seem like a lot of salt, but one tablespoon is correct. Be sure to use Diamond Crystal kosher salt, and if you use Morton's, reduce the amount by about half. (Make the chewy and gooey versions to compare.)

Time 30m

Yield Makes 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt
14 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons milk
1 1/2 cups chopped bittersweet chocolate (peasize pieces and shavings)
2 cups chopped toasted walnuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line two baking sheets with foil. Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt.
  • In a mixer fitted with a paddle, cream the butter, sugars and corn syrup for about 3 minutes. Stir in the vanilla, then the milk. Add the flour mixture all at once and blend just until a dough forms. Fold in the chocolate and walnuts. Chill the dough for at least an hour.
  • Roll 2-tablespoon lumps of dough into balls, then place on the baking sheet and flatten to 1/4 inch-thick disks spaced 2 inches apart. Chill the dough between batches. Bake until the edges are dark golden brown, 14 to 17 minutes. Let cool slightly on the baking sheet, then transfer to a baking rack.

1¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
3 tablespoons butter, softened
3 tablespoons canola oil
¼ cup brown sugar
¾ cup white sugar
1 egg
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup dark chocolate chips

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two cookies sheets with parchment and set aside. In a large bowl, sift together flour and baking soda. In the bowl of your stand mixer whip butter and oil together until butter is broken down. Add the sugars and mix again. Add 1 egg and the vanilla extract. Slowly add in the dry ingredients until a sticky and wet dough comes together. Fold in chocolate chips (If more chocolate chips are desired, add more).

Transfer the cookies onto a wire cooling rack by sliding them off the tray with the parchment and leaving them until they have completely cooled.
