Ingredients
Method
- Spread the flour evenly on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F for 5–7 minutes
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar
- Mix in the milk, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
- Stir in the cooled, heat-treated flour until a dough.
- Stir in the chocolate chips.
Notes
- Don’t skip heat-treating the flour. It only takes a few minutes and ensures your dough is safe to eat.
- Use room-temperature butter. Soft butter blends better with the sugar for a smoother dough.
- Adjust sweetness. If you like your dough less sweet, reduce the sugar slightly or balance it with a pinch more salt.
- Chill if you like. The dough firms up nicely in the fridge, which makes it easier to scoop into bite-sized portions.
