How to Make Kroll’s Cookies

Ingredients

1 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
3/4 cup Cake Flour
1 tsp. corn starch
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup cold, unsalted butter, cubed
1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed (dark brown works too!)
1/4 cup white granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 egg yolk
1 tsp. vanilla extract (optional, see recipe notes)
2 cups milk chocolate chips (or semi-sweet, use less if you want)

Directions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, whisk together the All-Purpose flour, cake flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, place the cubed cold butter. Use the paddle attachment, and turn the mixer on to a medium-low setting.
Cream the butter for about 30 seconds. Then, add in the brown sugar and mix for another 30 seconds, followed by the white sugar for another 30 seconds. Cream until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Add in the whole egg and the egg yolk (and vanilla if using) into the butter mixture and blend until combined. If some butter sticks to the paddle, gently knock it off with a rubber spatula.
With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the flour mixture a little at a time until everything is mixed in. Then, fold in the chocolate chips until they’re evenly distributed.
Measure out about 6 cookies using a food scale (around 5.7 oz each) or eye-ball it. Keep the cookies tall so they bake up fluffy.
Place the cookies on a baking sheet. You can use a silicone baking mat or parchment paper if you prefer.
Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown. Remember to take them out right before you think they are done for that perfect chewy texture.
Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 15-30 minutes. This waiting is tough, but trust me—it’s worth it! Once rested, move them to a cooling rack and let them cool completely.
