#1 Chocolate Chip (03/26/19)
This chocolate chip cookie recipe is definitely worth trying if you love a chewy and crispy cookie with amazing flavor!
~Ingredients:
1 Cup Butter; softened.
1/2 Teaspoon Salt.
2 Teaspoons Hot Water.
1 Teaspoon Baking Soda.
3 Cups All Purpose Flour.
2 Teaspoons Vanilla Extract.
2 Large Eggs.
1 1/2 Cups Packed Brown Sugar.
1/2 Cup White Sugar.
2 Cups Semisweet Chocolate Chips.
~Directions:
Step 1: In a large bowl cream together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
Step 2: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add in the vanilla.
Step 3: Dissolve the baking soda in hot water, mix well. Add it to batter along with the salt.
Step 4: Stir in the flour and the chocolate chips.
Step 5: Wrap the dough in clear plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour (overnight is preferred but not required).*
Step 6: When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a cookie tray with parchment paper.
Step 7:Remove roughly 1-2 tablespoons of the dough (depending on the size of cookie you like) and roll into a ball with your hands and drop onto the prepared pans.
Step 8: Bake for about 8-10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges are JUST barely browning. These cookies are best when slightly under done.

~Recipe Notes:
*As the cookies bake, the fat in the chilled cookie dough takes longer to melt than room-temperature fat. And the longer the fat remains solid, the less the cookies spread - King Arthur Flour.
1) If you are not scared of a bit more sugar, try adding some powder sugar right out of the oven. This works well especially if the cookies are hot.
2) Make sure that the room temperature butter is creamed, not melted. If the butter is too warm the cookie will end up more dense. Butter out of the refrigerator for 30 minutes is a good temperature.
3)Sugar is important! This recipe is mostly brown sugar which helps the cookie to be taller and more cake-like in texture. If you were to use only white sugar the cookie would spread more. When the goal is a soft cake-like cookie, brown sugar is a must!
4) Chilling the dough is important. Some people often want to skip this step but it truly is necessary. A few hours is good, but up to 2 days in advance is best!
5) You can also make a sandwich out of 2 cookies by using whip cream.
