Ultra Thick Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookies

Delightfully thick and buttery chocolate chip cookies that evoke memories of cozy kitchens and sweet moments.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups chocolate chips (semisweet and dark)
  • 14 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
  • Optional for topping: extra chocolate chips and flaky sea salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, blend the melted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix in the eggs until smooth and creamy.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet, folding carefully until just combined.
  5. Cover the dough and chill it in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
  6. Scoop generous dough balls onto your prepared baking sheets, spacing them about two inches apart.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look just set.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about five minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use browned butter instead of melted butter. Mix semisweet and dark chocolate chips for a balance of sweetness and richness.
