Levain Bakery Loaded Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

500g plain flour

3/4 tsp baking soda

1 1/4 tsp baking powder

1 tsp cornstarch

1 tsp salt

120g butter – room temperature

135g brown sugar

80g granulated sugar

1 large egg

2 1/2 tsp vanilla essence

370g semi – sweet chocolate chips

Method

  1. In a medium bowl, sieve all the dry ingredients together and set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugars together until light and creamy.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla, scrape down all the sides of the mixing bowl.
  4. Add the dry ingredients in 2 or 3 stages and beat well after each addition.
  5. On a low speed gently fold through the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  6. Place clingfilm over the bowl and set in the fridge overnight for best results.
  7. Preheat the oven to 160F and line 2 baking trays with parchment paper.
  8. Using a digital weighing scales for best and accurate results weigh out the cookie dough to 6oz or 170g and roll into a ball shape and line them on the baking trays with loads of room as these cookies will be big, but they don’t spread that much when baking in the oven.
  9. Bake for 14 minutes and once out of the oven use the back of a spoon to press the cookies down a little.
  10. Leave to cool before eating!
