ULTIMATE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
• In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugars on medium-high until light and fluffy, 6 minutes. Reduce speed to medium-low and beat in eggs, one at a time. Beat in vanilla. Mix in flour mixture just until incorporated; fold in chocolate chips and chunks.
• Using a 1/4-cup ice-cream scoop or a large spoon, drop dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet (you should have 24) and refrigerate 1 hour. Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. Arrange 6 unbaked cookies, 3 inches apart, on each of two parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until edges are light golden brown, 17 to 18 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Transfer cookies to a wire rack and let cool. Bake remaining dough using new parchment.

THE BEST CRISPY CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Arrange racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Whisk the flour, salt and baking soda in a medium bowl until completely combined. Beat the butter, oil, granulated sugar and brown sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment (or a large bowl if using a hand mixer) on medium-high speed until creamy, about 5 minutes. The mixture will look broken but that's ok. Beat in 1 teaspoon water and the vanilla until smooth. Reduce the speed to low and beat in the eggs one at a time until incorporated. Beat in the dry ingredients until just combined. Fold in 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips. Reserve the rest.
• Drop heaping tablespoons of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Lightly press about 3 of the remaining chocolate chips into each cookie.
• Bake the cookies until they are a deep golden brown, rotating the pans halfway through, 12 to 15 minutes. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with any remaining dough.

ULTIMATE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Whisk together the all-purpose flour, cake flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
• Use a stand mixer or an electric hand mixer to beat the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar on low speed, about 30 seconds. Add in the eggs one at a time. Add the dry ingredients a little at time and beat to combine. Set aside about 1/4 cup of the dark chocolate chips for the topping, then mix in the remaining dark chocolate chips and semi-sweet chocolate chunks.
• Portion extra-large balls of dough with a 1-cup ice cream scoop on two baking sheets lined with parchment paper. With the reserved dark chocolate chips, press a few chips right on top of each ball. This will help to get little pools of chocolate. Place 4 to 5 balls of dough on each prepared baking sheet and place in the freezer for at least an hour and up to overnight.
• When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Bake one sheet of cookies at a time, until the edges and spots on top are golden but the insides are still slightly doughy, 15 to 18 minutes.
