If you love chocolate chip cookies, you’ve got to try out this recipe (and if you don’t, then we can no longer be friends). It’s got tons of chocolate and it uses just brown sugar, for a warm molasses flavor. The brown sugar helps give a chewy texture while the added cornstarch keeps the cookies nice and soft.

Like a typical cookie dough, you mix together the butter and brown sugar until the mixture is super light and fluffy. Then add your eggs, vanilla, flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt. Then you fold in those glorious semi-sweet chocolate chips and color M&Ms. Don’t forget to save some to dot the tops of your cookies before baking. For this recipe, I like to use an ice cream scoop to divide the batter for a nice big, bakery style cookie.

The key to a soft and chewy cookie is not overbaking. You want the cookies to be just barely browning on the outer edges. Don’t worry if they don’t look quite set in the center; they will set as they cool.

These Brown Sugar Chocolate Chip Cookies are really easy to make. If I were you I’d make a double, maybe even a triple batch. They freeze beautifully for up to 4 months! Not that they’d ever last that long at my house.

Total Time 25 minutes
Servings 12 -24 cookies (depending on size)

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup butter at room temperature
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

  • In a stand mixture with the paddle attachment, cream together softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy; about 3 minutes.
  • Add egg and vanilla and stir for 1 minute, until completely combined.
  • Stir in flour, baking soda and cornstarch, just until combined. I prefer to use a wooden spoon for this step.
  • Gently fold in chocolate chips and m&ms.
  • Use a large cookie scoop or ice cream scoop (about 3-4 tablespoons) to shape dough into balls and place on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Notes

Make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature before mixing your dough. This will give you the best texture.

  1. Omg 😋 delicious
    My husband and myself loved them, most definitely my go to chocolate chip cookie!

  2. Within the recipe, there is nothing stating that you should flatten these cookies. Having never baked with cornstarch before, I wasn’t sure so just put the pan into the oven. While they never did flatten. The first pan, after 9 minutes, I physically flattened them. The second pan, I flattened a bit ahead of time and they were a better cookie but still not like the photo. Should these be flattened before going into the refrigerator. Regardless, I did feel as if a step was omitted and will look for a more complete recipe next time. They were tasty but not at all done in the middle.

    1. There’s nothing stating to flatten the cookies because you DO NOT need to flatten the dough. The dough should spread and flatten as it bakes. If it didn’t, then it’s likely there was some other issue but it’s definitely not the cornstarch. Regardless, I’ve made this recipe several times and have never had to flatten anything.

  3. This would be one of the favourite cookie for my younger son. He loves chocolate chips the most. Adding brown sugar would enrich the flavour and make the cookie taste better.
