How to Make Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies
  1. Whisk dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Add egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract, and mix.
  3. Combine wet and dry: Pour wet mixture into dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, then fold in chocolate chips.
  4. Chill the dough: Cover the cookie dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  5. Preheat and prepare: Preheat your oven to 325°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  6. Scoop and shape: Portion out chilled dough using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, shaping them tall. Place 3 inches apart on baking sheets.
  7. Bake to perfection: Bake for 13–14 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden. Let cool on baking sheet for 10 minutes.
