Not The Same Old Chocolate Chip Cookies

Not the same old Chocolate Chip Cookies

I have made so many Nestle Tollhouse Cookies, I could recite the recipe in my sleep. These, however, are next level goodness. Crisp outside, chewy inside and a touch of maple syrup that makes all the difference.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled 5 minutes

  • 1/4 cup real maple syrup
  • 3 1/4 cup flour
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine melted butter and sugars. Add eggs, one at a time, until combined. Stir in vanilla and maple syrup.
  • Gradually add flour mixture to wet, stirring completely until combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
  • Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line cookie sheets with parchment paper.

Notes

  • Chilling for 30 minutes is the minimum. You can also store overnight in refrigerator  until ready to bake.  Allow dough to warm a bit before using hands to form balls.
