\"Thick<\/p>\n

Every year, my boys leave out a few different types of cookies for Santa. \u00a0One of them is my grandma\u2019s amazing sugar cookie recipe (which I\u2019ll be sharing this week) and these amazing thick & chewy chocolate chip cookies. \u00a0I got this recipe from a coworker about 12 or so years ago. \u00a0He brought some in to work and they were the most amazing chocolate chip cookies I\u2019d ever eaten! \u00a0They were the kind that you expect to find in a fancy bakery, not from a home kitchen. \u00a0<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re in search of a cookie recipe that will make Santa swoon, you\u2019ve got to try these cookies! \u00a0This year I used Christmas chocolate chips, but I also sometimes sub in the Christmas M&Ms. \u00a0Whatever you like, you\u2019ve got to give these a try! \u00a0It might get you back on the nice list if you\u2019ve been questionable this year;)<\/p>\n

  • 1\/2 tsp baking soda<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 tsp salt<\/li>\n
  • 12 tbsp (1 1\/2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted and cooled until just warm<\/li>\n
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 cup granulated sugar<\/li>\n
  • 1 large egg plus 1 egg yolk<\/li>\n
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract<\/li>\n
  • 1 to 1 1\/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n
    \n
    Instructions<\/div>\n
    \n
      \n
    1. Adjust oven racks to upper and middle positions and heat oven to 325 degrees<\/li>\n
    2. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper<\/li>\n
    3. Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.<\/li>\n
    4. Either by hand or with an electric mixer, mix butter and sugars until thoroughly blended. Beat in egg, yolk, and vanilla until combined. Add dry ingredients and beat at low speed just until combined. Stir in chips to taste<\/li>\n
    5. Using a 1\/4 cup ice cream scoop, scoop balls of dough onto cookie sheet. Be sure to leave 2 1\/2 inches of space between cookie dough and do not flatten them out.<\/li>\n
    6. Bake for a total of 15 to 18 minutes. After 7 or 8 minutes, rotate cookie sheets and alternate sheets on baking racks. Bake until cookies are light golden brown and outer edges start to harden, yet centers are still soft and puffy.<\/li>\n
    7. Cool cookies on cookie sheets.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
