Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups (250g) all purpose flour
- 1 cup (200g) brown sugar packed
- 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (180g) miniature chocolate chips
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup (227g) unsalted butter softened to room temperature
- 2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 Tablespoons (29ml) milk plus more if needed
Instructions
- Heat treat the flour: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Evenly sprinkle the flour on the baking sheet and bake for 8 minutes until it reaches 160°F to make it safe for consumption. Allow the flour to cool completely and sift before using to prevent clumping.
- Cream the butter and sugars: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric or stand mixer to beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Mix in vanilla extract and salt until combined.
- Add dry ingredients: Gradually beat in the cooled, heat-treated flour just until combined. Add milk one tablespoon at a time while mixing until the dough begins to come together into a smooth consistency.
- Fold in chocolate chips: Using a rubber spatula, gently stir in the miniature chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough.
- Serve and store: Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. For longer storage, freeze for up to 3 months and thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Let it sit at room temperature before serving to soften.
Notes
- For a gluten-free version, substitute the all-purpose flour with your favorite gluten-free all-purpose flour blend.
- Weigh or spoon and level the flour to measure accurately for best results.
- You can heat-treat flour in the microwave using 30-second intervals until the temperature reaches 160-165°F.
- Store dough in the fridge and allow it to sit at room temperature briefly to soften before serving.
- If the dough is too dry or crumbly, add additional milk one tablespoon at a time and mix until it comes together.
- Do not over-soften or melt butter to avoid a greasy texture; chill dough if necessary.
- For a smaller batch (2-3 servings), use 1/2 cup flour, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1/4 cup unsalted butter, 3/4 teaspoon vanilla, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 1/2 teaspoons milk, and 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips.
