Cakey chocolate chip cookies

These are a cakey chocolate chip cookie. Very soft and pillow. I used a half all purpose flour and half bread flour. I incorporated bread flour because I wanted to prevent them from spreading too much. I also froze the dough pieces for 20 minutes to prevent spreading.

Scoop the flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount and preheat your oven for 20 minutes before baking so it cycles to the right temp.

  • Ingredients
  • 10 tbs butter, softened
  • 4 tbs crisco
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 1 1/4 cups flour
  • 1 cup bread flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbs cornstarch
  • 2 cups chocolate chips

Directions – cream butter, brown sugar and sugar. Add eggs and vanilla. Blend in dry ingredients. Fold in chips. Scoop out 3 tbs dough and form into tall mounds. Freeze 20 minutes or chill an hour or two. Preheat oven to 350 degrees for 20 minutes before baking. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Stagger cookies on sheet – a row of 2, a row of 1, a row of 2, a row of 1. Bake 12 to 14 minutes. Bottoms will be golden and tops should be mostly set. They will firm up after taken out of the oven. Cool completely and store in covered container.

Banana chocolate chip cookies

Uncategorized Leave a comment

These are the first banana treat I have made since the mid 90s. Back then, I made a banana bread cake and added some chocolate chips. I thought I messed it up, so I frosted it. I took it to work. It was a big hit, and even a friend of mine who said he didn’t like bananas, loved it. So after 25 years, here is my next attempt at a 🍌 treat.

These cookies make the house smell amazing. They are soft like banana bread, with chocolate chips and vanilla frosting. Perfect to bring in Monday morning to work.

Reminders – spoon your flour from your flour bag into you measuring cup so you get the right amount. And, preheat your oven to 350 degrees for 20 minutes so it cycles to the right temp.

  • Ingredients
  • 1 cup Crisco
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups mashed bananas
  • 4 cups flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tbs cornstarch
  • 2 cups chocolate chips

Directions – cream Crisco, butter and sugar. Add eggs, then bananas. Blend in dry ingredients. Stir in chocolate chips. The dough will be sticky. You will want to spray a cookies scoop (and your hands) with Pam spray. Scoop out 1/4 cups of dough. Chill a few hours. Preheat oven to 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Line a cookie sheet with nonstick baking liners. Bake 15 to 20 minutes. The bottom will be golden and you will see golden patches on top. Cool completely.

  • Frosting ingredients
  • 4 tbs butter, melted
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • Milk
