Description
These chewy, warmly spiced double chocolate chip cookies feature a rich blend of dark and white chocolate chips with fragrant cinnamon and nutmeg.
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups (300 g) all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp (4 g) cinnamon
- 1 tsp (2 g) nutmeg
- 1 tsp (5 g) baking soda
- 3/4 tsp (4 g) salt
- 3/4 cup (170 g) unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup (150 g) granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup (165 g) brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 2 tsp (10 ml) vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup (60 g) dark chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup (60 g) white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened butter on medium speed for 1 minute until smooth and creamy.
- Add granulated sugar and brown sugar. Beat on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Mix in the eggs and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gradually add the flour mixture on low speed. Mix until just combined.
- Fold in ¾ of the dark chocolate chips and ¾ of the white chocolate chips on low speed.
- Scoop 2 tbsp (about 40g) of cookie dough per cookie. Place 6 cookies on each prepared baking sheet.
- Press the remaining dark and white chocolate chips onto the top of each cookie dough ball.
- Bake for 13 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through. The edges should be lightly golden, and the centers should still look soft.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Notes
Make sure your butter and eggs are at room temperature. It makes a huge difference in how smoothly your batter comes together, leading to a perfectly consistent crumb.
Once you add the flour, mix just until it’s combined. Overmixing can develop the gluten too much, making your cookies tough instead of delightfully chewy.
Pressing extra chocolate chips on top before baking ensures every bite has a melty chocolate moment right on the surface.
