Happy National chocolate chip cookie day!

In honor of national chocolate chip cookie day, we will be celebrating at ESPN Radio with these chocolate chip cookies.  They are made with browned butter and bread flour.  I was in a hurry today,  so i needed a recipe with melted butter.  No time to chill, so bread flour helps with the cookies from spreading too much.

Spoon your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount.  And preheat your oven before baking.

  • Ingredients list
  • 1 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups brown sugar,  firmly packed into measuring cups
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tbs heavy cream
  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 cups chocolate chips

Directions – preheat oven to 350 degrees.   Line cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside.  place  butter in pan and cook over low-medium heat until you see brown specs.  it will look like this.

Cool in a bowl in fridge for 5 minutes.  Remove from fridge and mix in sugar and brown sugar.  Add eggs,vanilla and cream.  Blend in dry ingredients,  then chips. Scoop out 1/4 cups dough and stagger on prepared cookie sheets. 

Bake 12 minutes, no longer.  Cool completely. 

Store in covered container.

Happy National Chocolate Chip Cookie day 2024!

I thought we already had national chocolate chip cookie day this year, but I saw yesterday that it is August 4th, which is today.    I already had funfetti cookies stuffed with golden oreos, but still whipped up a batch of chocolate chip cookies, also including white and milk chocolate chips.  These are made with browned butter and bread flour.  I used a bread flour recipe bc it is terribly humid, again, and I was hoping to keep the cookies from spreading.  I also froze the dough mounds for that same reason. The first batch did not spread at all.  They are large blobs and a little doughy, so I popped them in the fridge. 

These might be a little too puffy!

I have a few different cookie pans, so it might have been that.  😀

Remember to scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount.  I recommend chilling the individual  dough cookies for a few hours.  Also preheat your oven before baking.

  • Ingredients list
  • 1 cup butter, browned and cooled 10 min
  • 1 1/4 cups packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tbs heavy cream or milk
  • 2 1/2 cups bread flour (scooped from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount)
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 2/3 cup white chocolate chips
  • 2/3 cup milk chocolate chips

Directions – pour browned butter in a mixing bowl.  Mix in brown sugar and sugar.  Blend in egg, yolk, vanilla and cream/milk.  Fold in dry ingredients.  Mix in chips.  Scoop out 1/4 cups of dough.  Chill a few hours.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.   Line a cookie sheet with nonstick baking liners.  Stagger cookies on sheet.   Bake 10 to 12 minutes.   Tops will likely be gushy.  Place them in fridge to firm them up.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  Wishing you a wonderfully, happy day!
