How to Make the Recipe

Now, let’s get baking! Follow these simple steps to create your own batch of Bakery Chocolate Chip Crush Cookies:

1. Cream the Butter & Sugars: In a stand mixer or large bowl, beat cold, cubed butter with brown and white sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy (about 3–4 minutes). Scrape down sides as needed.
2. Add Eggs & Vanilla: Add eggs one at a time, mixing until just combined. Stir in vanilla extract.
3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Gradually mix dry ingredients into the butter mixture until just combined.
4. Add the Chocolate: Fold in chocolate chips and chocolate chunks (and nuts, if using).
5. Scoop and Chill (Optional but Recommended): Scoop large cookie balls (about ¼ cup each or 3.5 oz if using a scale). Place on a lined baking sheet. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes or freeze for 15 minutes (for thicker cookies).
6. Bake: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake 6–8 cookies per sheet for 12–14 minutes, until edges are golden and centers look just set. Immediately sprinkle with flaky sea salt, if desired.
7. Cool: Let cool on the baking sheet for 5–10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

Here are some of my favorite tips to ensure your cookies turn out perfectly every time:

• Use cold butter for a chewier texture—this is key!
• Don’t skip the chilling step; it helps the cookies maintain their shape while baking.
• Experiment with different types of chocolate—dark, milk, or even white chocolate can add a unique twist!
• If you love nuts, add them for extra crunch and flavor.
• For a fun variation, try adding a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking for that sweet and salty combo.

Make Ahead and Storage

These cookies can be made ahead of time and stored for later enjoyment. Here’s how:

• Storage: Keep baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
• Freezing: You can freeze the cookie dough balls before baking. Just scoop them onto a baking sheet, freeze until solid, then transfer to a zip-top bag. When you’re ready to bake, just add a couple of extra minutes to the baking time.
• Thawing: If frozen, let the cookie dough sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes before baking.
