Harmony’s Favorite Giant Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe!

Chocolate Chip Cookies were on my mind today. This CCC recipe is a favorite I’ve found and tweaked to cookie perfection. They cook perfectly through, even with their large proportion; they’re soft, chewy, and loaded with chocolate. And they’re super easy to put together! Load them with whatever you want to make them a chunk-filled dream of your choice. I love a combination of chocolate and nuts, but these are just wonderful as they are, filled with a ton of chocolate chips.

Harmony’s Favorite Chocolate Chip Cookies

Makes: 22-24 large cookies

Ingredients:

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar, packed
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup chopped dark chocolate

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F and prepare 2 aluminum baking sheets lined with parchment paper; set aside.
2. In the bowl of an electric stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugars until creamy. Add the vanilla and eggs and mix until combined.
3. In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add to the wet ingredients while mixing on low, adding a little at a time, until all the ingredients are combined into a dough; do not overmix.
4. Add the chocolate chips and dark chocolate pieces to the dough and disperse evenly with your hands or a wooden spatula.
5. Pinch off large golf ball-sized pieces of dough and roll them between your hands before arranging them on the cookie sheets. Evenly space the cookies, 5-6 per sheet, and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges just start to brown.
6. Let cool before transferring to a cookie rack. Repeat for the rest of the cookie dough. Let the cookie sheets cool completely before reloading.
