Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookies
Description
These Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookies use a mix of bread and cake flours alongside leavening agents to develop a chewy yet tender crumb. The softened salted butter with brown and white sugars creates a rich, caramelized sweetness complemented by the depth of dark chocolate pieces. The recipe instructs to chill the dough for at least 24 hours, allowing flavors to meld and improving texture when baked.
Baked at 350°F, large scoops of dough produce generously sized cookies with a balanced crispy edge and moist center, resembling quality bakery cookies. The combination of finely chopped and chip-sized dark chocolate intensifies the chocolate presence throughout each bite. A sprinkle of sea salt on top enhances the flavor contrast.
This recipe yields approximately 30 cookies, making it suitable for sharing or storing. Careful measurement and chilling contribute to consistent results that bring home bakery-style indulgence.

Instructions
- *Plan ahead! This cookie dough needs to sit in the refrigerator at least 24 hours before baking.
- Sift together the flours, soda, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Set aside. 2 cups minus 2 tablespoons cake flour, 1 2/3 cups bread flour, 1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda, 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt
- Using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugars. Add in the eggs and vanilla, mixing until well combined. 1 1/4 cups salted butter, 1 1/4 cups light brown sugar, 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons white granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix just until combined. Gently stir in the chocolate. 1 cup shaved or finely chopped dark chocolate, 1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 24-36 hours.
- When it is time to bake, preheat the oven to 350ºF. Use an ice cream scoop to scoop large 1 1/2 - 2" dough balls. Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with a nonstick baking mat or parchment paper. 1/4 cup white granulated sugar
- Take a glass cup, get the base of the cup wet with water, then dip the cup in granulated sugar. Use the base of the cup to press lightly down on the top of the cookie dough balls.
- Bake for 13 minutes in the preheated oven. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt right when they come out of the oven. Allow the cookies to cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then remove them to a wire rack to cool completely.
