It’s no secret that I love a good cookie.
They’re easy to make, the flavor combinations are nearly endless, and they’re delicious. So, there’s a lot to love about cookies.
These Bakery Style Double Chocolate Chip Cookies are thick, soft double chocolate chip cookies. They’re a perfect quick fix when you’re craving chocolate!
Can I use a different type of chocolate chip?
I use semi-sweet chocolate chips because they’re my go-to for most cookie recipes, but bittersweet or milk chocolate would work instead.
Do I need to chill the cookie dough?
Since they start with cold butter, the dough keeps its shape well when baked – no chilling needed.
It also means that this is a great recipe to make when that cookie urge strikes and you don’t want to wait for the butter to soften or the dough to chill.
How long will double chocolate chip cookies keep?
These cookies are best eaten within the first 2-3 days after they’re made.

February 20, 2019 at 4:49 pmYou have a recipe for Bakery Style Double Chocolate Chip Cookies and Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies. I can see the difference in ingredients but what is the difference in the final cookie or why might I like one over the other?

February 20, 2019 at 8:26 pmThe bakery style double chocolate chip cookies are thicker, and they’re more of a soft almost cakey cookie. The chocolate chocolate chip cookies are thinner and chewier. I hope that helps! If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.

August 3, 2017 at 7:02 amWhat is the calorie count and othe nutrient information on this cookie? Do you know? I’m looking to see how “healthy” a cookie it is to eat. I’m not trying to be smart, I really have to watch for a member in my family.
Thank you. ?
