Irresistible Thick Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe – Pure Bliss

thick chocolate chip cookies

Thick and gooey bakery-style chocolate chip cookies with a soft center and crispy edges.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 1/2 tsp fine salt
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup chocolate chunks (or chopped chocolate)
  • Optional: flaky sea salt for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and fluffy.
  3. Beat in eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix just until combined (don’t overmix).
  5. Fold in chocolate chips and chocolate chunks.
  6. Scoop large cookie dough balls (about 3 Tbsp each) and place 2–3 inches apart on the baking sheets. Press a few extra chips/chunks on top for that bakery look.
  7. Bake 10–12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden and centers look slightly underbaked.
  8. Cool on the pan 10 minutes, then transfer to a rack. Optional: sprinkle with flaky sea salt while warm.

Notes

  • For extra thick cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
  • Freeze unbaked dough balls for up to 3 months.
