The Essential Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie

Source of Recipe


From "The King Arthur Flour Cookie Companion"



List of Ingredients



• ¾ cup (1½ sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  
• 2/3 cup dark brown sugar, packed
  
• 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  
• 2 Tbsp light corn syrup
  
• 1 Tbsp cider or white vinegar
  
• 2 large eggs
  
• 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
  
• ½ tsp salt
  
• ½ tsp baking powder
  
• ¼ tsp baking soda
  
• 2¼ cups (9½ ounces) unbleached all-purpose flour
  
• 3 cups (18 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
  






Instructions



1. Preheat oven to 375° F. Lightly grease (or line with parchment) two baking sheets.
   
   
2. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, cream together the butter, sugars, corn syrup and vinegar; then beat in the eggs. Beat in the vanilla, salt, baking powder and baking soda; then stir in the flour and chips.
   
   
3. Drop the dough by the tablespoonful onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake the cookies for 10 minutes, until they're just set; the centers may still look a bit undone. Remove them from the oven and transfer them to a rack to cool.
   
   Makes 4 dozen cookies.
