1. The Classic Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie
This recipe is Broma Bakery's take on the quintessential chocolate chip cookie. The focus here is on achieving that perfect balance of chewiness and soft texture.
Ingredients for Chewy Perfection:
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup packed brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups chocolate chips (semi-sweet, milk chocolate, or a mix!)
Baking Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
- Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
2. The Thin & Crispy Chocolate Chip Cookie
For those who prefer a lighter, crispier texture, this recipe delivers. We'll achieve this crispness through careful butter manipulation and baking time.
Ingredients for Crisp Cookie Cravings:

- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs

- Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until just incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Again, avoid overmixing.
- Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spreading them slightly with the back of a spoon.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips for Chocolate Chip Cookie Success
- Use good quality ingredients: The better your ingredients, the better your cookies will taste.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing develops the gluten in the flour, resulting in tough cookies.
- Chill the dough (optional): Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking helps prevent spreading and enhances flavor.
- Use a cookie scoop: This ensures consistent cookie size and baking time.
- Experiment with different chocolate chips: Try dark chocolate, white chocolate, or even chocolate chunks for variety.
Troubleshooting Common Chocolate Chip Cookie Problems
My cookies are too flat:
This often happens when the butter is too warm or the dough is overmixed. Make sure to chill the dough properly and avoid overmixing.
My cookies are too dry:
This might be caused by using too much flour, overbaking the cookies, or using old baking soda. Precisely measure ingredients and monitor baking time closely.
My cookies are too chewy:
This may happen if you didn't bake them long enough. Bake until the edges are slightly golden and baked through.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: Can I freeze chocolate chip cookie dough?
A: Yes! Freeze the dough in balls on a baking sheet before transferring them to a freezer bag. Bake from frozen, adding a couple of minutes to the baking time.
Q: What's the best way to store baked chocolate chip cookies?
A: Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
Q: Can I substitute butter with other fats like oil or shortening for chocolate chip cookies?
A: While possible, the texture and flavor will change. Butter provides the best flavor and texture for most chocolate chip cookies. For a healthier alternative explore reduced-fat butter options.
Q: How can I make my chocolate chip cookies vegan?
A: You can substitute the butter with vegan butter and the eggs with a flax egg (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal mixed with 3 tablespoons water). Ensure your chocolate chips are also vegan.
Q: What is the secret to perfectly browned cookies?
A: The combination of proper baking temperature and baking time is crucial. Keep a close watch on your cookies towards the end of their baking time to prevent burning.
