Everyone needs the perfect chocolate chip cookie recipe. I’ve been tweaking my own personal recipe for years now, and yesterday I finally achieved The Perfect Batch. I feel it’s only my duty to share it.
Please come up with a reason to make these and give me your feedback. I just ate one as I wrote that last sentence and I am pretty certain that was the best cookie I ever ate.
DANI'S CHOCOLATE-CHIP COOKIES
Preheat oven to 375. Then mix these dry ingredients together in a bowl and set aside.
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 tsp. baking soda
Cream together with an electric mixer the following ingredients:
• 3/4 cup (1 and 1/2 sticks) butter, softened
• 1/4 cup almond butter
• 1/2 cup organic sugar
• 1/2 cup, plus 1 tbsp. packed organic dark brown sugar
Once the sugars and butters are well-blended, add:
• 1 egg
• 1 tbsp. vanilla extract
Mix well. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and blend until dough is no longer sticky. The dough might look a little drier than your average cookie dough, but don't worry. Add:
• 12-16 oz. chocolate chips (I prefer Callebaut or Ghiradelli)
Incorporate chocolate chips into mixture. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and scoop rounded and even spoonfuls onto both sheets. Bake in oven for 12-20 minutes, switching halfway through for even cooking. Bake until light golden brown.
