Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare ingredients by measuring them out.
  2. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter until it turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the white and brown sugars with the browned butter and mix well. Add eggs one by one along with vanilla extract, beating until smooth.
  4. Whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and cornstarch in another bowl. Gradually fold this into the wet mixture until just combined.
  5. Stir in both semi-sweet chocolate chips and mini chocolate chips evenly.
  6. Cover dough with plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  7. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  8. Scoop dough onto prepared sheets, leaving space between each cookie, and bake for about 10-12 minutes until edges are golden while centers remain soft.
  9. Allow cookies to cool on the sheet before transferring to a cooling rack.
