chocolate chunk cookies

Ingredients
▢1 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
▢3/4 cup Cake flour*
▢1 tsp. corn starch
▢1/2 tsp. baking powder
▢1/2 tsp. baking soda
▢1/2 tsp. salt
▢1/2 cup cold, unsalted butter, cubed (8 Tbsp.)
▢1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed dark brown works too!
▢1/4 cup white granulated sugar
▢1 large egg
▢1 egg yolk
▢2 cups milk chocolate chips** (you can always use less chocolate if you want) or semi-sweet.

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Whisk together the All-purpose flour, cake flour, baking soda, baking powder, cornstarch and salt together in a large bowl. Set aside.
Place the cubed butter into the bowl of a stand mixer and secure the paddle attachement. Turn the mixer on the lowest setting. I keep mine on “stir” the whole time.
Let the mixer cream the butter for 30 seconds, and then add in the brown sugar and mix 30 seconds, followed by the white sugar for 30 seconds. Then add in the egg and the egg yolk and blend until mixed. If any of the butter gets stuck on the paddle attachment use a rubber spatula to knock it off.
Keep the mixer on low speed & gradually add in the flour mixture. Slowly and carefully add it in a little at a time until ingredients are incorporated. Then add in the chocolate chips and mix just until the chocolate chips are incorporated. Turn off the machine.

Measure out ~6, 5.7 oz. cookies. I like to use a food scale for this but if you don’t have one, simply eye-ball it. Cookies will be a little smaller than a fist, huge I know! Keep the cookies nice and tall and don’t flatten them. Bake all 6 cookies on a cookie sheet at a time. No need to spray the cookie sheet with baking spray.
Double up your cookie sheet: flip one cookie sheet upside down and place the other cookie sheet your cookie dough is on on top of that. This ensures the bottoms won’t brown too much. It’s a fun tip!
Bake cookies for 10-12 minutes. The tops will be golden brown and the secret is to pull them out before you think they are done. Let them rest on the cookie sheet for at least 15-30 minutes. It’s hard to wait. Trust me, I’ve been there. Place the cookies on a cooling rack to finish cooling completely. Enjoy with a big tall glass of milk!
