Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies

Teresa Ambra

These cookies are about the most Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies ever! I love every kind of version of Chocolate Chip Cookies. I can remember making them at a friend’s house when I was about 7 or 8 years old. Her mother was very indulgent and let us “play” in the kitchen. That particular batch was a little goopy and flattened out in the pan when they baked, but we still gorged ourselves on them. 🙂 I can also recall how I love to order these chocolate cookies for delivery!

A couple of months ago we sampled these jewels at our Thursday night Bible study/connection group. I begged for the recipe. Donna had taken a recipe from the back of a bag of Gold Medal unbleached flour. It was called Perfect Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookies. Those cookies aren’t on their website any more, but this recipe is the closest to the original recipe she gave me. It’s very rare when a recipe calls for unbleached flour. Since that’s the only kind I use for baking I knew I had to give their recipe a try.

Donna added a half a bag of miniature chocolate chips to the recipe. I added a whole bag. So this scrumptious recipe has double the chocolate chips. I also left off the pecans since Donna made hers without them. Oh my! These cookies were so good.

Let me make a suggestion for those of you who want to make this or any other cookie recipe on my blog. Make sure you stir the batter long enough when mixing everything together. When you’re dealing with 4 cups of flour, it may take 5 minutes to get all the flour worked in appropriately. Make sure every bit of flour is stirred up from the bottom of the mixing bowl so it is worked in and the mixture adheres together. Too many people fail to stir thoroughly and then complain because the mixture is dry. KEEP STIRRING!

I use very heavy metal spoons for stirring that my husband purchased at a restaurant supply years ago. They are very strong for batches of cookies where you use this much flour (or are doubling or tripling the recipe). Wooden spoons are okay but heavy metal spoons really work through the dough a lot better.

I always rotate my cookie sheets on racks while baking. I try to keep them in the middle to the top of my oven as it tends to overcook on the lower racks. I change the pans out every six to seven minutes while baking. The cookies bake more evenly this way instead of some of the cookies turning out too brown on top or too brown on the bottom.

However, because you open the oven once or twice during baking times, the heat escapes. This means you usually have to add additional time to the recipe for the cookies to bake sufficiently. If you’re still getting an indentation when you lightly touch the cookie (even after 15 minutes) then they need to bake a little longer. When I’m baking two racks at a time, the cookies usually take almost 20 minutes before they’re done. Remember, each oven is different. You’ll have to make adjustments for your oven. But this is how I’ve baked cookies since my mom first showed me over 50 years ago.

We loved, loved, loved how Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies turned out. If you’re a Chocolate Chip Cookie addict, you’ll gorge yourself on these perfectly amazing cookies. 🙂

Donna’s cookies were really large like this one, so I used a large cookie scoop to measure out the dough. The cookies baked up big and beautiful.

Here’s what I did.

Bake at 350 degrees about 12-15 minutes until lightly browned. My cookies took 18 minutes to bake completely. This is what they looked like just out of the oven. I rotated the cookies on racks about every 7 minutes while the cookies were baking.

    Thanks for the post. My question is: should I use a liquid measuring cup for the sugar and flour as shown in your picture to duplicate this recipe as you have made it? I was taught to use dry measuring cups for those ingredients.
    Many thanks.

      Hi there. I’m an old-fashioned cook that didn’t grow up with all the fancy cooking utensils that are in use today. I’ve always used the liquid measuring cups to measure the dry ingredients. Never had any problems. If you prefer using dry measuring cups, use those. Enjoy.
