For Thick Chocolate Chip Cookies Baked Until the Edges Set, the counter starts with all-purpose flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Portion it for 25 cookies.
Count on 15 minutes of prep, 12 minutes of cooking, 1 hour of resting, about 1 hour from the first measurement to the plate.
What goes in the bowl
- 4 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup dark brown sugar — packed
- 1 ½ cups unsalted butter cold but pliable
- 2 whole eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ⅔ cups chocolate chips
How the cooking goes
- Beat together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl until evenly combined. Keep it to one side. 2.Cream the butter and sugar until a thick paste forms. Do not cream until light or fluffy.
- Put the eggs one at a time, mixing fully after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients in about 3 to additions, mixing just until no dry streaks remain.
- Mix in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Roll the dough into 70g balls, place on a lined sheet or plate, and refrigerate or freeze for at least 1 hour. The dough balls should feel completely firm before baking. Make sure you divide and roll the dough before you chill it!
- Heat the oven to 350°F conventional or 325°F convection, and line your sheet pans with baking paper.
- Oven-bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the edges are golden and the tops look matte rather than wet. The centers will appear slightly underdone and that is correct.
- Cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then move it onto a wire rack to finish cooling.
After it comes off the heat
Cool the sheet on a rack before the pieces are stacked. A covered tin keeps them for a few days.
