Re: Easy and cheap ways to make chocolate chip cookies
Hi Courtney!
I love chocolate chip cookies! There are so many recipes to choose from. Do you know what kind of chocolate chip cookie you want? Chewy? Soft? Crispy on the outside?
The key to getting the cookies you want is all about ingredients and a few little tips.
Here is a great recipe to start:
BEST CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE RECIPE
INGREDIENTS:
½ Cup unsalted butter
½ Cup Butter Flavored Shortening
1 Cup packed Brown Sugar
½ Cup Granulated Sugar
2 Eggs
2 tsp Vanilla Extract
½ tsp Almond Extract (optional)
1 tsp Fine Sea Salt or 1 1/4 tsp Kosher Salt
2 tsp Baking Powder
2 ¼ Cups All-Purpose Flour
1 package 10-12 oz Chocolate Chips
1 cup coarsely chopped nuts (optional)
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 375°.
In a separate glass bowl, sift or mix dry ingredients together(flour, salt, and baking powder). Set aside.
In a new glass bowl microwave butter and shortening until soft and can be stirred. Do not melt! Stir butters until blended.
Cream softened butters and sugars together on medium speed with mixer until light and fluffy.
Add eggs one at a time, beating between each egg.
Add extracts and mix until well blended.
With mixer on, add dry ingredients in small amounts and mix just until blended.
Add chocolate chips.
Drop 1 ½” dough balls onto greased or parchment lined cookie sheet.
Bake 8-9 minutes or until edges are golden brown. (just the edges!)Let the cookies sit on cookie sheet 3-5 minutes before transferring to wire rack.
Start over on cool cookie sheet.
Good luck with your cookies!
