Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 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.
