Kittencal's Jumbo Chewy Bakery-Style Chocolate Chip Cookies
5.0(35)
Yes, finally a cookie that really does taste just like the ones sold at the bakery! --- these taste almost similar to Pillsbury chocolate chip cookie dough (the dough that is wrapped in a tube-like shape) but this is better! The dough amount may be reduced to make about 40 (one-heaping tablespoonful) smaller cookies, be aware that baking times will need to be slightly reduced for smaller cookies--- NOTE do not double the recipe in one bowl it will not have the same texture if your going to double make two separate recipes in two bowls --- you will love these cookies!
In a bowl mix together the flour with the next 3 dry ingredients.
03In a mixing bowl using an electric mixer at medium speed beat the melted butter with maple extract and both sugars until blended.
04Add in the whole egg and yolk; continue beating until the mixture resembles a thick caramel texture (about 3-4 minutes, the color of the mixture should lighten up slightly).
05Add in the flour mixture and beat until just blended.
06Mix in chocolate chips and nuts.
07If you find that the dough is too soft place in refrigerator for 2 hours.
08Set oven to 350°F.
09Drop about 1/4-cup of the dough onto the baking sheet spacing about 3" apart.
10For jumbo cookies bake for about 12-15 minutes or until the edges are just slightly browned, for smaller cookies bake 8-10 minutes.
11Cool on baking sheet for about 5 minutes then transfer to wire racks.
