Step 1

  1. Preheat Your Oven

    Preheat your oven to 175°C and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

  1. Mix the Wet Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Whisk until smooth. Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully combined.

Step 3

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt.

Step 4

  1. Form the Dough

    Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula or wooden spoon. Fold in the chocolate chips and optional toppings like nuts or white chocolate chips.

Step 5

  1. Chill the Dough

    Cover the dough and refrigerate for 30 minutes. This enhances the flavor and improves texture.

Step 6

  1. Shape and Bake

    Scoop about 2 tbsp of dough per cookie and place on the baking sheets, leaving enough space between each. Bake for 12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden and the centers look soft.

Step 7

  1. Cool and Serve

    Allow the cookies to rest on the baking tray for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm for the best gooey texture!

Extra Instructions

  1. Store Leftover

    Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Dough can also be frozen for up to 2 months and baked directly from frozen (add 2 extra minutes).

Note

For the best results, always use room temperature ingredients, especially eggs and butter, to ensure even mixing and smoother dough texture. Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes is recommended for thicker cookies with a more intense flavor. If you're short on time, a 10-minute chill will still work. Use semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips for a balanced sweetness, and fold them in gently to avoid overmixing. For a gourmet touch, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top before baking. These cookies store well in an airtight container for up to 5 days, or you can freeze the dough for up to 2 months. Just bake directly from frozen, adding 1–2 extra minutes. For crispier edges, extend the baking time by a minute or two. Always let cookies cool slightly on the tray before transferring to a wire rack to prevent breakage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Expand All:
Can I skip chilling the dough?

 Yes, but chilling helps control spreading and enhances flavor. A quick 10-minute chill is better than none.

 

Can I use salted butter instead of unsalted?

You can, but reduce added salt by half to balance the flavor.

 

How do I make cookies crispier?

Bake 1–2 minutes longer and use slightly less brown sugar.

Can I freeze the cookie dough?

Absolutely. Shape into balls and freeze. Bake directly from frozen with 1–2 extra minutes.

What chocolate works best?

Semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips or chunks melt best and balance the sweetness.
