Ruby Chocolate Chip Cookies
An easy Ruby Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe made with ruby chocolate chips and a classic soft cookie dough. Perfect for Valentine cookies, spring baking, and everyday treats.
Servings: 19 cookies
Equipment
- baking sheets
- parchment paper
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter
- ¾ cup white sugar
- 1 large egg + 1 egg yolk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1½ cups all purpose flour
- 1 cup ruby chocolate chips, plus extra for tops
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 340°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Melt butter until mostly but not completely liquid (30–40 seconds in the microwave).
- Beat the butter and sugar until light and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Beat in the egg and yolk as well as the vanilla.
- Blend in the baking soda, salt, and cornstarch.
- Fold in flour with the mixer on low; I do this in several batches. Then fold in ruby chips just until combined.
- Scoop the dough with a 1 7/8" cookie scoop, and roll into balls. Place 2" apart on your lined cookie sheet. If you like you can press 3-4 ruby chips on top for visibility.
- Bake 10–11 minutes ~ the cookies should be puffy and pale, just set at edges. Try not to over bake them.
- Rap the pan once on a hard surface to deflate the centers. Let them cool a few minutes on the pan before moving to a rack.
- Store the cookies lightly covered or under a cake dome at room temperature. They can be frozen for up to 3 months.
