For our graduating seniors, I thought it would be fun to make some giant cookies that Annie told me about.
Brittany Mitchell Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
1 C unsalted butter cold, cut into tablespoons
1 1/4 C light brown sugar
1/2 C granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 3/4 C flour
1/4 C cornstarch
1 1/2 C oats
1 t baking soda
1 t salt
1 1/2 C semi sweet chocolate chips
Oven 425. Mix butter on low until broken up. With the mixer on low, add sugars. Blend until no visible chunis of butter, about 1 minute on low or medium low. Add eggs and mix until smooth on low/med low. Stop mixer and add flour, cornstarch, oats, baking soda, and salt. Pulse the mixer until the wet and dry ingredients are incorporated, about 10 pulses. Then mix on low until the flour disappears. Pulse in the chocolate chips.
6 oz cookies (1/3 to 1/2 C), 4-5/sheet, stacked high, 6-7 minutes, barely set and golden on top. Let sit for 30-60 min to allow the cookie to set up.
4 oz cookies = 8 minutes (12 cookies)
3 oz cookies = 6-7 minutes (17 cookies)
(AI says to cook lower and slower for big cookies, though.)
