26 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
3¼ cup All-purpose flour
1 cup Cake flour
1 teaspoon Baking soda
1 teaspoon Baking powder
1¼ cup Sugar
1¼ cup Brown sugar; firmly packed
1½ cup Butter; softened
2 Eggs
1 tablespoon Vanilla
12 ounces Semisweet chocolate chips; 2 cups, or chunks

Directions

Heat oven to 375 degrees. In medium bowl, combine flour, cake flour, baking soda and baking powder; set aside.

In large mixer bowl, combine sugar, brown sugar and butter. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla. Continue beating; scrapeing bowl often until well mixed (one minute). Reduce speed to low, continue beating, gradually adding flour mixture until well mixed, 2 to 3 minutes. By hand, stir in chocolate chips.

Drop dough by ¼ cupfuls 2 inches apart onto cookie sheets. Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 14 minutes. Remove from cookie sheets. Makes 26 Jumbo cookies

Note: 1 cup all-purpose flour minus 2 tablespoons can be substituted for cake flour, but cookies will be flat and less chewy.

Cook's Tip: For 2½ inch cookies, drop by rounded tablespoons 2 inches apart onto cookie sheets. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until light golden brown. Makes 4 dozen cookies.
