Recipe Introduction
Posted by: Bosox_MA********I am a terrible cookie maker, but these came out beautifully and I must pass them on. The recipe is from Gourmet Magazine. Even beats the Original Toll House Cookie recipe. (It has to be the butter)
List of Ingredients
2 1/2 sticks softened unsalted butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 tsp salt
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups all purpose flour
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (12oz package)
Recipe
Beat together butter, sugars and salt in large bowl on high speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in egg and vanilla until combined, then reduce speed to low and mix in flour until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips and chill, covered, at least 4 hours or overnight.
Heat over to 375. Drop 2 TBS mounds about 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheet. Bake 15 minutes. Cool for five minutes and transfer to racks to cool completely. Cool baking sheet between batches.
NOTE: Apparently if you do not chill dough, the cookies spread too much because of all the butter. The dough is very firm after refrigerating, but I just dug it out with a spoon. Made each cookie a litle larger than a golf ball. I only cooked them 12 minutes and they were done. Crispy around the edges and chewy in middle. I also used regular butter plus the salt.
I bet you could even roll this dough into tubes and give it as a gift with instructions for baking. Nothing like a hot cookie!!!!
