The Best Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies


These are THE BEST soft chocolate chip cookies! No chilling required. Just ultra thick, soft, classic chocolate chip cookies!

INGREDIENTS
  • 8 tablespoons of salted butter
  • 1/2 cup white sugar (I like to use raw cane sugar with a coarser texture)
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour (more as needed � see video)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (but I always add a little extra)
  • 3/4 cup chocolate chips (I use a combination of chocolate chips and chocolate chunks)
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Microwave the butter for about 40 seconds to just barely melt it. It shouldn�t be hot � but it should be almost entirely in liquid form.
  2. Using a stand mixer or electric beaters, beat the butter with the sugars until creamy. Add the vanilla and the egg; beat on low speed until just incorporated � 10-15 seconds or so (if you beat the egg for too long, the cookies will be stiff).
  3. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix until crumbles form. Use your hands to press the crumbles together into a dough. It should form one large ball that is easy to handle (right at the stage between �wet� dough and �dry� dough). Add the chocolate chips and incorporate with your hands.
  4. Roll the dough into 12 large balls (or 9 for HUGELY awesome cookies) and place on a cookie sheet. Bake for 9-11 minutes until the cookies look puffy and dry and just barely golden.Warning, friends: DO NOT OVERBAKE. This advice is probably written on every cookie recipe everywhere, but this is essential for keeping the cookies soft. Take them out even if they look like they�re not done yet (see picture in the post). They�ll be pale and puffy.
  5. Let them cool on the pan for a good 30 minutes or so (I mean, okay, eat four or five but then let the rest of them cool). They will sink down and turn into these dense, buttery, soft cookies that are the best in all the land. These should stay soft for many days if kept in an airtight container. I also like to freeze them.
NOTES
  • The 3 most important things about this recipe are 1) melting the butter, 2) adding enough flour, and 3) not baking for too long. If you find that the dough is wet and it REALLY sticks to your hands, you probably need a little more flour. This is important otherwise you�ll have flat cookies. I�ll usually add a few tablespoons at a time to get it to the right consistency. See video in post for reference. You should be able to roll the balls of dough between your hands without any issues.

Crispy Cheddar Chicken

This recipe makes a great freezer meal. Assemble the chicken according to recipe instructions, but don't bake it. Cover your pan tightly with foil and freeze. When you are ready to use it let it thaw completely and then bake at 400 degrees for 35 minutes. It's best to make the sauce fresh, when you are ready to eat. Prep Time: 15 minutes Cook Time: 35 minutes Total Time: 50 minutes Yield: 7 servings Ingredients Chicken: 4 large chicken breasts 2 sleeves Ritz crackers 1/4 t salt 1/8 t pepper 1/2 C milk 3 C cheddar cheese, grated 1 t dried parsley Sauce: 1   10 ounce can cream of chicken soup 2 T sour cream 2 T butter Instructions Cut each chicken breast into 3 large chunks.

Filet Mignon Steak with Garlic & Herb Butter

Filet Mignon, translated from French as �cute fillet� or �dainty fillet�,  is often referred to as tenderloin steak. It has a very mild beef aroma and mild beef flavor when compared to other steaks and needs additional steps to make it more flavorful. Some chefs call filet mignon overrated, but most of us love it. When cooked right it�s very tender, flavorful and tasty. Ingredients 4 filet mignon steaks (tenderloin steaks should be 2-inch thick) 2 Tbsp good quality olive oil 2 Tbsp unsalted butter Kosher salt (to taste) Black pepper (coarsely ground, to taste) For the compound butter: 8 Tbsp butter (1 stick, unsalted) 1 Tbsp fresh rosemary (finely chopped) fresh parsley (finely chopped) fresh oregano (finely chopped) 2 cloves garlic (blanched for 1 minute in hot water, then minced or pressed) Instructions Preheat oven to 410F. To make the compound butter, take the butter out of the fridge and let it sit at room temperature while preparing herbs and garlic. In the meantime, rinse ro...
