Ingredients

  • cups all-purpose flour
  • cups cake flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup melted butter
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Whisk together the flours, baking soda, and salt in a large measuring cup. Set aside. 
  • Combine the butter with both of the sugars in the bowl of an electric mixer. Stir with the paddle attachment on low/medium speed until slightly fluffy.
  • Mix in the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time. Stir on low speed until incorporated. 
  • Stir in the dry ingredients until just incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  • Cover and chill the dough 4 hours or overnight. 
  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line two cookie trays with parchment paper. 
  • Scoop 1/4 cups of dough onto your prepared trays keeping them 2-3 inches apart. 
  • Bake 15-17 minutes or until the edges are slightly curled and browned and the tops no longer look doughy. 
  • Cool completely on the cookie tray (except for the few you need to try warm).

Notes

No cake flour? No problem! Add 2 tablespoons of cornstarch to a 1 cup measuring cup. Top off with all-purpose flour. This will give you exactly ONE CUP of cake flour.
