Rob's Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies

These cookies are crispy and thin. They are loaded with big chunks of dark chocolate. These cookies are neighborhood famous. Every time he makes them he delivers a batch to our friends. He claims its the love that goes into them, but I have seen the butter and I swear that is what makes them so crispy.

Equipment

  • 2 Cookies Sheets
  • 2 Cooling Racks
  • 1 Spatula
  • 1 Kitchenaid Mixer Optional you can use a hand mixer if needed
  • 3 Mixing Bowls
  • 1 Small Ice Cream Scoop
  • Parchment Paper

Ingredients

  • ½ Cup Butter = 1 Stick - Room Temperature
  • 1 Tbsp Butter
  • ¾ Cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 ⅛ Cup Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • Pinch salt
  • 1 Egg Large / Room Temperature
  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract We use homemade
  • 1 Cup Chocolate Chips Dark Chocolate

Instructions

  • Take butter and egg out of fridge one hour ahead of time. Chop up butter into smaller pieces to help warm. (the extra tablespoon of butter helps you to end up with flatter, crispy cookies.
  • Once ready… Preheat the oven to 350°
  • In the mixing bowl, add the sugar and butter. Mix till they are fully blended.
  • In a separate bowl add the flour, salt and baking soda. Use a whisk to mix them and to break up any clumps in flour.
  • In a third bowl, use whisk to blend egg and vanilla extract.
  • Add in half of each bowl to mixer and mix for a minute. Now add in remainder of both bowls and mix till you have a good consistency.
  • Add in the chocolate chips and mix for about 20 seconds. You want the chips to be even throughout batch, but don’t mix too much to break up the chocolate.
  • Use a small ice cream scoop and place evenly spaced on parchment paper on a sheet pan. Cook in oven for about 11 minutes or longer if needed. Bottom of cookies should be slightly darker than tops.
  • Once done, use a spatula to move them from parchment paper to a cooling rack..

Notes

Freezable as dough or as already baked cookies. You can use whatever style of chocolate chip you prefer however we think the dark chips are the best.
