Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Here’s what you need:

2 sticks salted butter, melted

1 cup packed brown sugar (or make your own- listen for instructions)

1 cup granulated sugar

1 egg

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

3 teaspoons water

2 1/2 cups all purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon kosher salt

2 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch

12 ounces of chocolate- cut up bars or chips (but bars are better)

Here’s what you do:

• Melt the butter over a low heat- do not brown (unless you feel like it- it’s your cookie)


• While that's going, blend sugars together in a large bowl


• Pour the butter over the sugars and blend until lighter in color


• Add egg, vanilla- mix another minute or 2


• Add flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt,and cornstarch over the mixture- mix in gingerly using a large spoon or spatula


• When most of the flour is incorporated, add the chocolate and mix it bae


• Portion cookies out, a little bigger than usual, and let them sit in the fridge for 10 minutes


• Space the cookies out, so you don't end up with a giant cookie…although…


• Bake at 325 degrees for 6 mins


• Take the pan out and bang it on a flat surface


• Add a generous sprinkle of fancy salt (or kosher if that’s what you got)


• Back in the oven we go! Turn up to 350 degrees for another 6-8 minutes


• Take them out and let them rest


• Eat one over the sink before anyone else notices what you’ve done
