Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Chocolate and cookies go together like air and breathing, they are a perfect
match. Now imagine those cookies are soft and chewy with a glass of milk or a couple of scoops of ice cream. Hmmm I have your mind going and dreaming about these cookies. And yes that's what they do to you, make your feel good and that's why chewy chocolate chip cookies are so popular. Once you have them you keep coming back for more, but be careful you don't want to eat to much save some for later or my be a few for family and friends if you want to be nice. Companies have gain market shares in the cookie world because they started making these chewy chocolate chip cookies. Did you know that 25% of all cookies baked in the United States are chocolate chip cookies. As you see Americans love chocolate chip cookies, my be you want to make your own, my be you want to show your kids or friends how to make some really good chewy chocolate chip cookies. If you want a big chewy cookie like the kind you see at bakeries and specialty shops, then these are the cookies for you.Stir in the chocolate chips by hand using a wooden spoon. Cookies will spread as they bake and this ensures a more even spread. Allow cookies to cool before removing them from the baking sheet. It gives a tiny bit more tooth, and, I think, keeps the cookies chewy longer. It's not the only chocolate chip cookie recipe I'll use, but when you want a "big, fat, chewy chocolate chop cookie," this is awesome. I have tried quite a few chocolate chip cookie recipes, and this is by far the BEST!

Take the cookies out of the oven when the edges are just turning brown, leave on cookie sheet for a few min, and then let rest a bit longer to ensure best results. If you want these cookies to stay moist, put in sealed container after baking. Learn from my mistake Use (margarine) rather than butter in this recipe if you want thick cookies. This may be the perfect way for cookies to be, but all cookies are good fresh from the oven.

Recipe

Pre heat oven at 375 degrees in a large bowl beat the cooled melted butter

with the sugars. Beat in the egg, egg yolk and vanilla until well-combined.

In a medium bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the margarine, sugars, salt,

and vanilla until well combined. Beat in the egg Scrape down the bowl using a

rubber spatula and beat for a few more seconds. Beat in the egg, yolk, and

vanilla until combined. Add the dry ingredients and beat at low speed just

until combined. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the corn syrup,

water, and vanilla. Reduce speed to medium-low and add in eggs, one at a time,

beating after each addition until well incorporated. Reduce speed to lowest

setting or gently stir by hand , gradually add in dry ingredients, scraping

down bowl as necessary, and beating until just incorporated, don't over mix.
