Ingredients

Scale

2¼ cups all-purpose flour ((270g))
1 cup unsalted butter (room temperature (227g))
1¼ cups packed light brown sugar ((275g))
¼ cup granulated sugar ((50g))
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons milk (plus more if needed)
2 cups miniature semisweet chocolate chips ((300g))

Instructions

Begin by heat treating the flour to ensure it’s safe to eat. Place it in a large microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until it reaches 165°F. Allow it to cool completely, as this step eliminates any bacteria present in the raw flour.
In a microwave-safe bowl, add the butter and heat it on high until it’s partially melted, which should take about 30 seconds. Transfer the melted butter into a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Incorporate the salt, vanilla, and milk, mixing until everything is well combined. Gradually add the cooled flour, mixing on low speed just until the ingredients come together.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips. You can enjoy the cookie dough right away or chill it in the refrigerator to firm it up. The dough can be stored in the fridge for up to one week or in the freezer for up to one month.

Notes

TECHNIQUE TIP: Use a kitchen scale for precise flour measurement to avoid a floury taste and ensure smooth texture.

STORAGE: Heat treat flour in advance and store in an airtight container for quick access when making dough.

SUBSTITUTION: For a chocolate twist, replace 1/4 cup of flour with unsweetened cocoa powder.
