Ingredients
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1⅔ cup white sugar
  • ¼ cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 2⅔ cup all purpose flour
  • 2 Tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 cups chocolate chips
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  2. With a mixer, cream the butter and sugars together.
  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing until just incorporated.
  4. Add the vanilla.
  5. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt together.
  6. Add to the wet ingredients, and mix until just incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  7. Roll into ⅛ cup balls, and bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 9-11 minutes — until the edges are set and peaks are beginning to turn golden.
  8. Let cool on the baking sheet for two minutes before moving to a cooling rack.
Notes
This dough can easily be refrigerated (or frozen!). If you're having issues with the dough spreading (which I don't anticipate, if you follow the recipe), try refrigerating the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
