Perfect with a glass of milk.This recipe is from my new favorite cookbook, Milk Bar Life by Christina Tosi. I’m a huge fan of MasterChef, and I was so excited when I found out Christina was going to be a judge this year. She is a world-renowned pastry chef, and owner of 8 successful bakeries. Have you ever been to one of the Momofuku Milk Bar locations? They are full of crazy creative and indulgent goodies. How the heck does she stay so thin?!

It is made by hand in one bowl, and there is no chilling required. It makes 1&1/2 dozen cookies, so just enough for you to enjoy with a few lucky friends or family members. But if you decide to keep all the cookies for yourself (because they are that good) I won’t tell.

There is also one unique ingredient in this recipe, and that is nonfat milk powder. According to Christina, it is what give these cookies their chewiness.

My husband took one bite and said “why would we ever buy cookies again?” and then he continued to moan as he ate the cookie. Did that sound weird? I hope I didn’t embarrass him by writing that. 🙂

Description

These jumbo size cookies are crispy around the edges, chewy and fudgy in the center.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup (227g) unsalted butter, melted and lukewarm.
  • 3/4 cup (175g) packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100g) white sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 3/4 cups (220g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp (15g) nonfat milk powder
  • 1 tsp (5g) salt
  • 1/2 tsp (3g) baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp (1g) baking soda
  • 300g chocolate chunks (I used a dark chocolate bar, roughly chopped)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375F and line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown and white sugar until nice and smooth. Add the egg and vanilla. Whisk again until glossy and completely blended.
  3. Using a sturdy rubber spatula or wooden spoon, mix in the flour, milk powder, salt, baking powder and baking soda until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chunks.
  4. Using a large cookie scoop or a 1/4 cup dry measuring cup, drop the cookie doughs 2 to 3 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges golden brown.
  5. Let cool completely on the baking sheet.
