It has been over two years since I made these, but I’m just that far behind on blog posts.<\/p>\n

Chocolate chip cookies are a classic. Everyone has their own way of making them, but this time I tried Joanne Chang’s chocolate chunk cookies from her Flour<\/em><\/a> cookbook. Sorry, no story this time, either. Taxes and all that…<\/p>\n

Chocolate Chunk Cookies<\/strong>
\nfrom Flour<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
\n3\/4 cup granulated sugar
\n3\/4 cup packed light brown sugar
\n2 eggs
\n1\/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
\n1 cup all-purpose flour
\n1 cup bread flour
\n1 teaspoon baking soda
\n1\/2 teaspoon salt
\n9 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
\n2 1\/2 ounces milk chocolate, chopped<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Cream the butter and sugars together.<\/li>\n
  2. Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract.<\/li>\n
  3. Stir together the all-purpose flour, bread flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl.<\/li>\n
  4. Toss the chopped chocolates in the flour mixture.<\/li>\n
  5. Add the flour-coated chopped chocolate to the butter mixture and mix until combined.<\/li>\n
  6. Let the dough rest in the refrigerator at least 3~4 hours, or overnight.<\/li>\n
  7. Preheat the oven to 350F.<\/li>\n
  8. Make 1\/4-cup balls from the dough and place them on a baking sheet about 2 inches apart, flattening each ball slightly.<\/li>\n
  9. Bake the cookies for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown on the edges.<\/li>\n
  10. Let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5~10 minutes before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The 1\/4-cup dough balls are quite large.<\/p>\n

    They are done after 15 minutes. They do look pretty brown.<\/p>\n

    \"IMG_6717\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    The cookies are pretty big.<\/p>\n

    These cookies were quite good, chewy in the middle, but crisp on the outside. They don’t taste as burnt as they look.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
