Description

Sheet Pan Chocolate Chip Cookies are an easy and delicious dessert baked all at once in a sheet pan, ideal for cutting into squares and serving a crowd.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 1/2 cups dark brown sugar, packed
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 large egg yolks, room temperature
  • 2 tbsp whole milk
  • 1 1/2 tbsp pure vanilla extract
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 2 cups chocolate chips (semi-sweet, milk, dark, or your choice) plus extra for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Spray a standard half sheet pan (13×18 inch) with nonstick spray and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk melted butter with both sugars until smooth, breaking up any clumps of brown sugar.
  3. Add eggs, egg yolks, milk, and vanilla extract, whisking until fully combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet until mostly combined.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  7. Spread the batter evenly onto the prepared sheet pan, smoothing it out. Sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top if desired.
  8. Bake for about 20-22 minutes. The cookies will look puffy at first but will settle as they cool.
  9. Allow to cool completely on the sheet pan before cutting into 24 squares.

Notes

  • Make sure the butter is melted but not too hot before mixing with the sugars.
  • Don’t overbake, as the cookies will continue to cook on the hot pan after being removed from the oven.
  • Top with additional chocolate chips for a decorative finish.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week.
