Δ Whether you like crispy cookies, soft cookies, chocolate chunk cookies, mini chip chocolate chip cookies, cookies stuffed with frosting, cookies made with hard boiled eggs…I’ve got you covered. BUT one chocolate chip cookie recipe I did not have on my website (until today) is a perfectly CHEWY Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe. I couldn’t believe it either. So today we’re talking about how to make the softest, chewiest chocolate chip cookies ever to happen!
What Makes These Cookies So Chewy?
The secret to these CHEWY cookies is…drumroll please…Karo® Corn Syrup!! Yep, it’s a pretty genius “secret ingredient”, if you ask me! I mean, let’s think about it… Using Karo® Corn Syrup in place of some of the sugar is obviously going to make your cookies softer. And not only will the cookie be soft, but the corn syrup also adds a chewiness to the centers that just can’t be duplicated! These taste like the best version of a bakery cookie. You can use either Karo® Dark or Light Corn Syrup….totally up to you. The subtle sweetness that Karo® adds to the cookie is a nice change to the typical chocolate chip cookie recipe. You bake these with butter, of course, so your edges still get brown and slightly crisp, but the insides are chewy and soft…and they will stay soft!! Just make sure to bake them until just the edges are golden, if you want a true soft cookie.
Does This Cookie Dough Need To Chill?
The cookie dough comes together quickly, and requires no chill time, which is great! It is a softer dough, due to the corn syrup, but they hold their shape beautifully when baked!
These Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies are my kids new favorite cookie recipe. And I am fully on board with an easy cookie recipe, that turn out perfect every time! You could certainly add nuts, or different types of chips to switch up the flavors. The base recipe for this cookie dough is ultra adaptable and can be used in so many ways!
