Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookies

We love cookies in our house…particularly chocolate chip cookies. This recipe makes the best bakery-style chocolate chip cookies I have ever had! They are soft, chewy and so delicious! 
Author: Jeannie

Ingredients

  • 2 sticks of unsalted butter 1 cup
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 ½ teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips
  • ¾ mini M&M’s

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350℉.
  • Combine the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and cornstarch in a bowl. Set aside.
    3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1 ½ teaspoons cornstarch
  • In a medium to large pot, melt the butter on low heat. Do not melt the butter completely…just until it is almost completely melted. Remove from heat.
    2 sticks of unsalted butter
  • Whisk into the melted butter the sugars, eggs and vanilla extract until well combined.
    1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup brown sugar, 1 tablespoon vanilla extract, 2 eggs
  • Slowly add in the dry ingredients until mixed well together.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips and M&M’s with a spatula or wooden spoon.
    1 cup mini chocolate chips, ¾ mini M&M’s
  • Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or baking mat.
  • Scoop out ¼ cup dough. Roll them into balls and then roll between hands so they are more taller than wide. (See photo)
  • Place 6-8 cookie dough balls on your cookie sheet, leaving a couple of inches in between each one.
  • Bake 12-14 minutes. Do not over bake.
  • Let them sit on cookie sheet 10-15 minutes before removing to cooling rack.

Notes

Using only chocolate chips works well too if you don't have M&M's on hand.
