How to Make Single-Serve Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookie

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup (56 g) salted butter (softened)
• 1/4 cup (54 g) brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 egg yolk (at room temp)
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup (65 g) all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 cup (85 g) chocolate chips (milk, semi-sweet, or dark)

Directions:

1. Add the softened butter, brown sugar, and white sugar to a bowl. Use a stand mixer or hand mixer to mix the butter and sugars for 2-3 minutes until well combined.
2. Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
3. Add the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt. Mix until just combined.
4. Add the chocolate chips and stir until they’re evenly distributed through the dough.
5. Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a cylinder shape. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and transfer to the freezer for 1 hour to chill.
6. When the dough is almost done chilling, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
7. Transfer the dough balls to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are just set. Let them rest for 10 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely (or dive in early if you want an ooey-gooey cookie). Enjoy!

How to Serve Single-Serve Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookie

Serve your cookie warm, straight from the oven or after a brief cooling period. You can pair it with a glass of milk for a classic combination. If you’re feeling extra indulgent, add a scoop of ice cream on top!

How to Store Single-Serve Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookie

If you have any leftovers (which is unlikely!), store your cookie in an airtight container at room temperature. It will stay fresh for 1-2 days. You can also freeze the uncooked dough for later use. Just shape it into a cylinder, wrap it tightly, and it can last in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Tips to Make Single-Serve Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookie

• Make sure your butter is softened. If it’s too cold, it won’t cream well with the sugars.
• Don’t overmix the dough once you add the flour. Mixing just until combined keeps the cookie tender.
• Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate chips, nuts, or even a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking for added flavor.

Variation

You can easily alter this recipe by adding different mix-ins, such as chopped nuts, dried fruit, or even white chocolate chips. You might also try swapping the chocolate chips for peanut butter chips for a different taste.

FAQs

1. Can I use unsalted butter instead of salted butter?

Yes, you can use unsalted butter. Just add a tiny pinch of salt to your dough to balance the flavors.

2. Is it necessary to chill the dough?

Chilling the dough helps the cookie keep its shape and gives it a better texture. However, if you’re in a hurry, you can skip this step but be mindful that the cookie may spread more.

3. Can I double the recipe?

This recipe is designed for a single cookie. If you want more, you can easily multiply the ingredients by how many cookies you want to make. Just remember to adjust baking time if you bake more than one cookie at a time!
