Blue Ribbon Chocolate Chip Cookies


My son was puttering around the internet looking for THE chocolate chip cookie recipe and low and behold he found one from a fellow blogger that I just love, I am Baker!
He needed something good for his 4H project-Baked Goods.
Right after he saw his blue ribbon!!
I assembled his ingredients for him, showed him how to properly use the mixer and let him get to work.  I used the stove, of course, but he made the dough.
He got a BLUE ribbon too!  We were SO excited!
Waiting in line to be judged

Blue Ribbon Chocolate Chip Cookies
from I am Baker

2 cups minus 2 tablespoons (8 1/2 ounces) cake
flour
1 2/3 cups (8 1/2 ounces) bread flour
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
2 1/2 sticks (1 1/4 cups) unsalted butter
1 1/4 cups (10 ounces) light brown sugar
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons (8 ounces) granulated
sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/4 pounds chocolate chips
Sift flours, baking soda, baking powder and salt
into a bowl and set aside.
Using a mixer with a paddle attachment, cream
butter and sugars until light and fluffy – about 5 minutes. Add eggs. Stir in vanilla. Reduce to low speed and add dry ingredients slowly,
mixing until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips. Refrigerate dough for
24-36 hours.
When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350.
Drop spoonfuls of dough
onto baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes.

Jacob only made the 8 he needed.  I scooped out the rest and flash-froze for later.  Once frozen I put the dough balls into a freezer bag for later use.

I can only say, make sure not to over bake these.  They may not seem done, but they are.
Absolutely the best CC cookies I have ever had!!
