The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies Ever

July 9, 2019 by Emily Leave a Comment

Chocolate Chip Cookies

There are so many chocolate chip cookie recipes out there. Its hard to find the BEST one but I think I found my favorite recipe. I tried the recipe from one of my favorite food bloggers, Gaby from What’s Gaby Cooking. I tested it out and made a few adjustments to the recipe to make it my own and I am really happy with the results! 

The cookies are crispy and light on the edges but gooey in the center. They are the perfect combination of crunchy and chewy. 

I know using bread flour and cake flour can sound intimidating but I promise its really simple! You can find bread and cake flour at any grocery store in the baking aisle. 

Enjoy these cookies with a tall glass of milk!

The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies Ever

Prep Time15 mins
Cook Time15 mins
Total Time30 mins
Course: Sweet Treats
Cuisine: dessert
Keyword: chocolate, Chocolate chop cookies, cookies

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups cake flour
  • 1 1/2 cups bread flour
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 ½  teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 ½  teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 ¼  cups softened unsalted butter 2 1/2 sticks
  • 1 1/2   cups dark brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup white granulated sugar
  • 2  large eggs
  • 3  teaspoons natural vanilla extract
  • 2 cups dark chocolate chips I like the brand Guittard

Instructions

  • Cream together butter, dark brown sugar and white sugar in mixer with the paddle attachment. Mix them together on medium high speed for five minutes until very fluffy and a pale yellow color.
  • As that mixes together, sift together the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Mix together so all the ingredients are well combined and set aside.
  • Next add in the eggs in the to butter and sugar mixture. Add them one at a time, mixing for about one minute after each addition. Then, add in the vanilla extract and mix for one more minute.
  • Time to slowly add in the dry ingredients. On low speed, add in the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix just until combined, about 15 seconds.
  • Last step is adding in 2 cups of the dark chocolate chip and mixing just until combined.
  • I really encourage you to refrigerate the cookie dough for at least 24 hours and up to 72 hours! But I totally understand if you need to bake them right away but wait at least an hour to let them refrigerate before doing so!
  • After 24 hours, use an ice cream scoop and spoon the cookie dough onto the cookie sheets with parchment paper. I like to only put 6 scoops of cookie dough on each sheet so they don’t stick together. They are decent sized cookies so they will spread slightly.
  • Bake the cookies at 350º for 15 minutes.
  • Allow them to cool and then dig in!

When pruning African Basil 🌿 ➡️ become a sweet🌸 little arrangement for my mama!

I try to make the most use out of the plants that I prune. African Basil produces these beautiful little purple flower when it’s overgrown. It’s the perfect pretty solution when it’s time to prune your plants!

•**SAVE THIS POST**!
Remember those moody aromatic beans I made last week? Well here’s a recipe using them! It’s a cold and rainy in LA so I figured it was the perfect time to share this cozy dish. You could enjoy it as a stew or as an appetizer!
•
✨Garlicky Roasted Tomato & White Beans✨:
6-8 cocktail tomatoes (cocktail tomatoes are larger than cherry tomatoes but smaller than normal tomatoes. You can find them at any grocery store!) 
¾ cup olive oil
4 cloves of garlic
1 teaspoon salt
2-3 cups cooked or drained canned white beans **(I used my brothy white beans so there was more liquid! If using canned, feel free to add 2-3 cups of water or chicken broth! If the beans are fresh use 1-2 cups of the broth!)
1 whole lemon peeled and cut into small pieces
Lemon zest ( zest the lemon before peeling)
½ cup parmesan cheese
4-6 anchovies
1 teaspoon Chili flakes (optional)
Toast for dipping
•
Heat oven to 400º. In a baking dish, add the tomatoes, olive oil, garlic cloves and salt.
•
Roast the tomatoes for 35-40 minutes then allow them to cool for 10 minutes. 
•
Place a large saucepan or a @lecreuset Dutch oven on medium high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil from the tomatoes and the 4 cloves of garlic. Save the rest of the oil for another time or drizzling at the end!
•
Using a wooden spoon, smash the garlic into the pan. Then add in the anchovies and chili flakes  and crush them using the wooden spoon. They should gently melt into the olive oil.
•
Once anchovies have incorporated into the olive oil, add the roasted tomatoes. Crush the tomatoes.
•
Next add in the white beans, broth, the whole lemon and half of the parmesan cheese. Stir together and then place back into the oven at 350º for 20 minutes. I actually poured my beans back into a baking dish to make it a fun snack for MJ and me! 
•
Pull the beans out of the oven and top with the remaining Parmesan cheese and lemon zest. Drizzle a little of the tomato garlic olive oil on top to be EXTRA ~~!
•
Serve with crispy bread for dipping!

It’s been awhile since I checked in so I just wanted to say hello! 2021 feels like it’s finally starting to get into the swing of things and I feel really good about this new year ✨.

If you’re new, I’m Emily! I love cooking and helping others in the kitchen. I created my own line of authentic spice blends to assist the everyday cook in their kitchen and bring some boldness to their food! I have a passion for home entertaining and just creating a really lovely space in the place you spend the most time. I feel like food and cooking is so connected to your love for others, treating your home as a little sanctuary and making a wonderful life for yourself and the people around you. I have to admit... I REALLY miss throwing parties, hosting and making lots of food for lots of people! 🤞🏼 we can get back to that in 2021! Until then, I’m really enjoying my current company: 🧔🏽MJ, 🐶 Nala and Lucy 🐾 .

🦋In the next few weeks I’ll be rolling out some more fun additions to help make our homes feel even 🥧cozier, spicier✨ and more 💐beautiful!

How it’s started👉🏼How it’s going! Things are moving along nicely! So far we’ve: removed the countertops, backsplash, sink, faucet, microwave and cabinets! The new farmhouse sink is going in today and then hopefully backsplash will start moving in... but surprise! We’re picking ANOTHER backsplash (hopefully today). The goal is to have the kitchen done in 2ish weeks. Ambitious... but I think we could still do it!
•
More today on backsplash tile!
