Blizzard day chocolate chip cookies

Another very cold day, so I decided to heat up the house a bit by baking more cookies.  Rob asked for chocolate chip cookies.   (I have so many to choose from).  These use melted butter and a mix of all purpose and bread flour.  And I also pressed extra chips into the tops of the cookies as soon as they came out of the oven.

Remember to scoop you flour from your flour bag into  your measuring cup so you get the right amount.   I chilled the individual doughs for a few hours to help keep them puffy while baking.  And, preheat your oven before baking the cookies.

  • Ingredients list
  • 1 cup butter, melted
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, firmly packed into measuring cup
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tbs water
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 11/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups bread flour
  • 1 tbs cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

Directions – in a bowl, combine melted butter, sugar and brown sugar. Add water,  eggs and vanilla.  Stir in baking soda and salt.   Mix in both flours.   Fold in chips.   Scoop out 1/4 cups dough.  Chill a few hours.  When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.   Stagger cookies on sheet.  Bake 11 to 14 minutes, no longer.  Cool completely.
