Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies
February 8, 2012 in chocolate, cookie
I found my go-to chewy chocolate chip cookie recipe years ago but I still can’t resist trying new ones whenever I see them named the best ever. I mean, those are big claims.
This recipe uses cornstarch to give the cookies their almost-fluffy texture. And it works wonderfully! They were like little pillows of chocolate chip goodness. I made them one morning and was so glad I didn’t procrastinate on photos because they were GONE as soon as my husband and one of his buddies walked in for lunch. They inhaled them.
If you like you chocolate chip cookies chewy, you will love these! This recipe is definitely on my list of favorite cookies.

Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment (or with a hand mixer), cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy. Add egg and vanilla and mix.
- Sift in flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt. Mix until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips using a rubber spatula.
- Drop dough, using a tablespoon, onto a prepared baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes, just until the edges start to brown. The insides will not brown.
- Transfer the sheet to a wire rack and let cool for about 5 minutes before removing from pan.

It’s hard to resist a good chocolate chip cookie recipe. And this sounds like a good one! I used to always make them with shortening, but now I’m converted to the butter recipes!
