Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter cold, and cut into cubes (or 2 sticks)
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs chilled
- 1 cup cake flour SUBSTITUTION: For every 1 cup of cake flour, use 1 cup minus 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and then add 2 tablespoons of cornstarch. Sift them together.
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup unsweetened natural cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter, and the sugars together on medium speed (about 4 minutes). Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition just until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk cake flour, all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl. Set aside.
- Add the dry ingredients to the cookie batter, beating until the dough just comes together. Fold in all the chocolate chips with a rubber spatula.
- Place large cookie mounds on a kitchen scale. Each must weigh about 4.5 oz or 127.5 g). Distribute the cookie mounds between 2 parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Cover and freeze the dough for at least one hour before baking so the cookies won’t spread much when baking.
- Twenty (20) minutes before taking the cookie mounds out of the freezer, preheat the oven to 400° F (200° C).
- Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until tops are set and the center is slightly under-baked.
- Let our double chocolate chip cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then gently transfer them to cool on wire racks. You can enjoy them while they are slightly warm or at room temperature!
Notes
- Pro Tips
- Can I freeze the raw cookie dough for baking these double chocolate cookies later?
- Yes, you can, especially if you prefer to bake a few at a time. For freezing them for longer, after making the chocolate dough and freezing for one hour transfer the raw cookie balls into a large freezer-safe bag.
- Store the frozen dough for up to 3 months in the freezer.
- Bake the cookie dough balls straight from frozen. But make sure to add an extra minute (or two) to the baking time.
- Storage
- Store the baked and cool double chocolate chip cookies in a Ziploc bag or airtight container for about 2-3 days. Remove as much air as possible from the bag.
- You can freeze them for up to 2 months. But after thawing, they won’t be as crisp outside anymore yet they will still be moist.
- For rapid defrost, wrap each cookie in a paper towel and microwave for about 15-18 seconds.
- Use chilled butter and eggs.
- Measure well all your ingredients!
- Use good-quality chocolate chips so they will stay melted for longer after baking.
- Make sure to use a kitchen scale to weigh the cookie balls so each will have a uniform weight/size and bake evenly. Each must weigh about 4.5 ounces.
- Do not flatten the tops of the cookie dough balls!
- Freeze the cookie dough balls before baking so they won’t spread much while baking. These cookies are thick and chubby.
- For getting crisp edges, don’t smooth the cookie balls when forming them.
- Make sure to preheat the oven for at least 20 minutes before baking our double chocolate chip cookies.
- Use gloves to form the cookie balls because they may be sticky.
- The baking time may vary depending on your oven.
- Bake the 12 cookies in two cookie sheets. They are big and will need some space to expand.
- Take a peek at the cookies after baking them for 10 minutes.
- Let them cool on their baking sheet for at least 5 minutes before transferring them gently to a wire rack.
- They will be crisp outside with a soft center. These are no chewy cookies!
- These are more similar to Levain cookies than Subway or Nestle cookies.
- Our cookies ate neither vegan nor gluten-free!
