Soft Chewy Crisp Chocolate Chip Cookies image

Categories Cookies

Time 32m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup (4 oz \| 125 g) stick butter, melted (not spreadable)
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated white sugar ((or a granulated sweetener that measures 1:1 with sugar))
2 tablespoons golden syrup ((or coconut syrup, agave, rice malt syrup, maple syrup or honey may be substituted))
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 egg
1 1/2 cups all purpose or plain flour ((add more as needed -- only up to 1/4 cup extra)*)
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 teaspoon salt
¾ cup chocolate chips (, divided)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Microwave the butter for about 30 seconds to just barely melt it (half soft and half melted).
Beat the butter with the brown and white sugar/s until creamy and pale in colour and sugar has dissolved. Pour in the syrup, vanilla and the egg, and lightly beat until just mixed through.
Add the flour, baking soda, and salt, mixing until combined. If needed, add in one tablespoon of the 'extra' flour at a time until the dough is still soft but easy to handle and firm enough to form one large ball (the dough should not be dry. I only needed 3 tablespoons of the extra flour).
Fold in half of the chocolate chips with your hands.
Scoop out 18-20 balls and arrange them on a lined baking sheet with parchment paper. Press the remaining chocolate chips onto the tops of each cookie.
Bake for about 10-11 minutes. The cookies will look pale and puffed up, but should be golden around the edges. DO NOT OVER BAKE or your cookies will become hard once they have cooled.
Allow to cool on the baking sheet for about 30 minutes.
