Ingredients

  • 275g (2 cups) Unbleached Bread Flour
  • 4½g (1t) Baking Soda
  • 3g (1t) Kosher Salt
  • 227g (1 cup, or 2 sticks) Unsalted Butter, softened
  • 100g (about ½-cup) Granulated Sugar
  • 220g (about 1 cup, packed) Light Brown Sugar
  • 2 large Eggs, room temperature
  • 8g (2t) Vanilla Extract
  • 340g (1 bag) Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

Procedure

  • Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt into a medium bowl. Set it aside.
  • On a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and two sugars until fully combined.
  • Add the eggs in one at a time, making sure it is well incorporated before adding the next.
  • Put in the vanilla extract and mix for a few seconds.
  • Add the dry ingredients and combine until there are a few streaks of flour.
  • Turn off the mixer, pour in the chocolate chips, and mix by hand with a spatula.
  • Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours, or overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the racks on the top and bottom thirds of the oven. Divide the chilled dough into 48 balls, the size of a golf ball, and spread two dozen out onto two cookie sheets with parchment.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the cookies are golden brown. Divide and bake the rest of the cookies, or store the wrapped dough in the refrigerator for 3 days, or the freezer for a month.

*Bunny Wisdom*

  • Creaming the butter and sugar together lets the sugar crystals shear the butter to make the mixture smooth and fluffy.
  • Cold eggs can re-solidify the butter. Room temperature eggs prevent that from happening, creating a more uniform texture.
  • I prefer to finish mixing the dry ingredients by hand; this allows me to control the amount of gluten development. By adding the chocolate chips in before the complete incorporation of the flour, I prevent over-mixing.
  • You are welcome to use semi-sweet chocolate, chopped up into pieces.
  • Chilling the dough helps the butter to solidify. Softened butter will slacken the cookie, while a chilled dough will maintain its dome structure.
