Tips

  • Use European style butter for more fat, less water, more browning, and more flavor, ensuring cookies stay softer and fresher longer.
  • The combination of 1 egg plus 1 egg yolk creates a chewier and richer cookie, as the egg white makes it crispier.
  • Add cornstarch to the flour for a cakey texture with lightly crispy edges and a super soft and chewy center.
  • Add dry ingredients in two increments to avoid overmixing the cookie dough.
  • Don't be cheap with chocolate chips; use a combination of dark and milk chocolate for sweetness and a bit of bitterness.
