Large, bakery-style chocolate chip cookies that stay soft and chewy - a family favorite!

Thick and Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

all-purpose flour

baking soda

salt

unsalted butter,

brown sugar

sugar

vanilla extract

chocolate chips

Adjust the oven racks to the upper- and lower-middle positions and preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the butter and sugars until thoroughly blended, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in the egg, yolk, and vanilla until combined. Reduce the mixer speed to low, add the dry ingredients and beat until just combined. Using a rubber spatula, stir in the chocolate chips.

Roll a scant ¼ cup of the dough into a ball. Hold the dough ball with the fingertips of both hands and pull into 2 equal halves. Rotate the halves 90 degrees and, with jagged surfaces facing up, join the halves together at their base, again forming a single ball, being careful not to smooth the dough's uneven surface. Place the formed dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, jagged surface up, spacing them 2½ inches apart.

Bake until the cookies are light golden brown and the outer edges start to set, yet the centers are still soft and puffy, 15 to 18 minutes, rotating the baking sheets front to back and top to bottom halfway through the baking time. Cool the cookies on the baking sheets. Once cool, store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. These can also be wrapped in plastic wrap, placed in a freezer bag and frozen for up to 2 months.

These perfect cookies are buttery, chewy, thick and chocked full of rich, semi-sweet chocolate chips. Absolutely divine!

If free-handing, spoon about 1/2 teaspoon of batter per cookie, onto silpat or parchment paper and use back of spoon to spread into desired shape, ensuring it&#039;s not more than 1/16&quot; thick. Make 4-6 cookies at a time.

Bake 7-9 minutes

Bake 7-9 minutes, or until light to medium golden brown. Thickness will affect your total bake time.

Chocolate Spritz Cookies

Butter (Unsalted, Room temperature)

Egg (Large)

tsp Vanilla extract

All-purpose flour

Cocoa powder

Melted chocolate (For decoration)

Gold sprinkles (For decoration)

In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.&nbsp;

Add egg and vanilla extract and mix until smooth.

Add flour, cocoa powder and mix until just combined.&nbsp;

Fill the cookie press with this dough and press cookies onto baking trays, lined with parchment paper.Tip: If dough is too soft, cover bowl and chill dough in fridge for 30-40 minutes to make it easier to handle. If dough is too crumbly and a splash of milk or water to make it softer.&nbsp;

Chill trays in the freezer for 10 minutes. This is optional but really helps these cookies maintain their shape during baking.&nbsp;

Bake at 350 degrees for 6-8 minutes or until cookies are firm along the edges.&nbsp;

Allow them too cool down completely in the tray.

Then, either dip half of each cookie in melted chocolate or pour some melted chocolate in the center of the cookies and stick some gold sprinkles.&nbsp;

Place them on a sheet of wax paper and allow chocolate to set. Enjoy!
