Drool-Worthy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Literally the best chocolate chip cookies I have ever made. This is the one recipe that I make that has my friends, family, and co-workers begging me to make more! Every bite oozes with varying degrees of sweetness by utilizing three varieties of chocolate chips (semi-sweet, milk, and dark). And they compliment the banana-rich dough.

Equipment

  • 1 KitchenAid Mixer Optional, can also mix by hand. You'll just REALLY develop your arm muscles.
  • 1 Cookie Sheet
  • 1 Cooling Rack If you don't have this, a plate will work just as well.

Materials

  • 2 pieces Bananas Browning or Spotted Brown
  • 3 ½ sticks Butter Unsalted
  • 1 ¾ cups Brown Sugar Light or Dark
  • 1 ½ cups Granulated White/Cane Sugar
  • 5 ½ tbsp Water
  • 1 ½ tsp Vanilla Extract I used Mexican Vanilla Extract
  • 1 ½ tsp Salt
  • 1 ½ tsp Baking Soda
  • 6 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 3 cups Chocolate Chips One cup of milk chocolate, one cup of semi-sweet chocolate, and one cup of dark chocolate.

Instructions

  • Mix the butter and both sugars together.
  • Mush the two browning bananas in a separate bowl using your hands or a utensil (do not use a hand mixer or blender for this). The goal is to USE the texture in the bananas.
  • Add water, vanilla extract, and the banana mush into the mixture. Then mix.
  • Add salt and baking soda to the mixture. Then mix again.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Measure out the flour in a separate bowl. Pour some of it into the mixture (1/2-1 cup each time), then mix thoroughly. Repeat this until all of the measured flour is thoroughly mixed.
  • Pour the chocolate chips onto the dough, and mix using your own hands. It's pretty hard to mix this using any utensil. Slap on some gloves and mix that batch up!
  • Roll a ball of dough into your hands (size of a tennis ball, maybe slightly smaller), and then flatten it down to a thick disc.
  • Place your raw cookie discs onto the cookie sheet.
  • Place in the oven after the temperature has been reached.
  • Bake for 10-15 minutes. Start with 10, then you can put back in the oven for another two minutes each time you check. The bottom of the cookies needs to be a golden brown color.
  • Take out of the oven, and use a spatula to transfer the cookies to a cooling rack. Let sit for a couple of minutes. Resist urge to stuff in face.
  • Consume, forget other people exist so you eat all the cookies by yourself, rinse and repeat to make the cookies again.
