Kittencals Jumbo Chewy Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Grease a cookie/baking sheet/s (or line the pan with parchment paper).
• In a bowl mix together the flour with the next 3 dry ingredients.
• In a mixing bowl using an electric mixer at medium speed beat the melted butter with maple extract and both sugars until blended.
• Add in the whole egg and yolk; continue beating until the mixture resembles a thick caramel texture (about 3-4 minutes, the color of the mixture should lighten up slightly).
• Add in the flour mixture and beat until just blended.
• Mix in chocolate chips and nuts.
• If you find that the dough is too soft place in refrigerator for 2 hours.
• Set oven to 350°F.
• Drop about 1/4-cup of the dough onto the baking sheet spacing about 3" apart.
• For jumbo cookies bake for about 12-15 minutes or until the edges are just slightly browned, for smaller cookies bake 8-10 minutes.
• Cool on baking sheet for about 5 minutes then transfer to wire racks.

Steps:

• A couple of tips from helpful reviewers.
• The dough is meant to be on the dry side so it can be rolled, not dropped.
• If you're not getting a good flavor, try using a higher quality vanilla and/or chocolate chips. (Penzey's Madagascar Vanilla, Ghirardelli chips, fresh/real butter).
• Check your oven temperature, cooking time and temperature is critical. If the cookies are not chewy they are probably overcooked.
• Bread flour will make the cookies even more chewy, biscuit flour will make them less chewy.
• Do not let your dough get warm, I like to scoop it on to pans and refrigerate before I pop them in the oven.
• Pan color is very important, if they are too dark you may experience some crisp edges, try using some parchment and lowering the cooking temperature a bit.
• Place oven racks in the upper and lower 1/3's of the oven.
• Preheat oven to 325°F.
• Cover 2 large cookie sheets with parchment paper Mix flour, baking powder & salt in a bowl or bag and set aside.

• Stir in chips and optional nuts.
• Divide into 18 equal balls, a 2" cookie scoop works just about perfectly, about 60 gms each.
• EVENLY space 9 on each cookie sheet.
• Bake for 12-18 minutes, rotating front to back and top to bottom after 8 minutes.
• Cool on sheets to maintain chewy texture.
