hi everyone it's natasha of
natashaskitchen.com and today we are
making our favorite chocolate chip
cookies these are big soft and loaded
with melty morsels of chocolate these
cookies stay soft for days
in a large mixing bowl combine two
sticks or one cup of softened unsalted
butter with one cup of light brown sugar
and half a cup of granulated sugar cream
those together on medium high speed
until smooth
[Music]
you'll need two room temperature eggs
add them one at a time beating well with
each addition
[Music]
now mix in two teaspoons of vanilla
extract
in a separate small mixing bowl combine
three cups of all-purpose flour two
teaspoons of baking powder and a half a
teaspoon of salt
whisk that together then add it to the
creamed mixture in thirds adding it in
thirds makes it much easier to blend
for the cookies to rise properly make
sure to measure your flour correctly by
spooning it into the measuring cup and
scraping off the top
[Music]
and last but not least add two cups of
semi-sweet chocolate chips and fold
those into the batter just until well
combined
this cookie dough is the perfect
consistency now you can roll your cookie
dough balls by hand but i find it easier
to use a trigger release ice cream scoop
the cookies all end up the same size and
they bake up more evenly
i also like to stud the tops of the
cookie balls with a few extra chocolate
chips for a prettier cookie this recipe
makes 21 large cookies arrange them on
two parchment-lined cookie sheets and
bake one sheet at a time
you can freeze or refrigerate the second
batch for another day and i will leave
instructions for that in the recipe post
bake in the center of a preheated oven
at 350 degrees fahrenheit for about 13
to 15 minutes or until the edges are
just turning golden the tops should
still look a little under baked when you
pull them out of the oven
[Music]
cookies are ready
okay and you want to let these rest on
the baking sheet for about five minutes
once they come out of the oven because
they're super soft and they'll be hard
to transfer you don't want them to break
unless it's in your mouth
okay
um goofy jokes aside i'm ready for this
taste test
okay so transfer those to a baking rack
and let them cool a little bit but i
like to eat them while they're still
warm
and that chocolate is melty and gooey
okay so we're going to jump right into
this taste test i've got my milk here
you definitely want to be ready with
that
okay
here we go let's pick a big
fluffy one that's pretty much all of
them
okay this one looks promising
and take a look inside look at this
it is so soft
these are fully baked but you still have
that amazing cookie dough consistency
inside
and they are so
so chocolatey
yum
wow okay here we go
there we go here we go
[Music]
this just made my day
oh and a little swig of milk
[Music]
perfect
these have the perfect balance of
sweetness and chocolate
they're wonderful and so moist and gooey
and soft and fluffy and tall look at
this
my kids go wild for these i haven't told
them that these are out of the oven yet
because they're just gonna fly right off
of this cutting board
so good and i love that you don't have
to wait for these
there's no resting there's no
refrigerating although you can if you
want to i like to make half the batch
now and leave the other half of the
batch for tomorrow or the next day
so good i hope this becomes a new
favorite recipe for you
try it and you'll probably never look
for another cookie chocolate chip cookie
