Soft Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies


I like soft chewy chocolate chip cookies and I have been searching for a recipe that will live up to my expectations. I discovered this recipe from Anna Olson. This cookies are soft and chewy for days not just right out of the oven. She attributes it to the cornstarch in the batter. I have also made these into ice-cream sandwiches and the cookies stay soft even when frozen. These are my favourite chocolate chip cookies.


Ingredients
Chocolate Chip Cookies
3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, cut into chunks


Directions
Chocolate Chip Cookies
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Cream together butter and sugars until smooth. Add egg and vanilla and blend in.
Stir in flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt. Stir in chocolate chunks.
Drop by tablespoons onto a greased baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, until golden brown around the edges.
