Fresh chocolate chip cookies straight out of the oven!
Makes 15 cookies
INGREDIENTS
1 cup (110g) all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon (2g) baking soda
Pinch of salt
5 1/2 tablespoons (75g) butter, melted
5 tablespoons (60g) light brown sugar
1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
1 large egg at room temperature
1 teaspoon (5ml) pure vanilla paste
1/2 cup (80g) dark chocolate chips (70% cocoa)
DIRECTIONS
1. In a small bowl sift together the flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl combine the melted butter, sugars and vanilla with a spoon or electric mixer until the mixture is smooth.
3. Add the egg into the mixture and mix until well combined.
4. Fold in the flour mixture and chocolate chips until just incorporate.
5. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and put in the fridge at least 30 minutes.
6. Preheat the oven to 325ºF (162ºC). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat nonstick baking mat.
7. Take the cookie dough from the fridge and use a small size (40mm) ice cream scoop to put dough balls on the baking sheet. Leave 2'' (5cm) between the cookies. You may need to bake them in two batches.
8. Bake until cookies are golden brown for about 10 - 12 minutes. Let cookies cool for 5 minutes on a wire rack.
Keep cookies in a airtight container, for up to 3 days.
Enjoy!
