1 tbsp cornstarch

1/2 tsp baking soda
09 -
1/4 tsp salt
→ Mix-ins
10 -
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
11 -
1/4 cup crushed candy canes
12 -
7 Oreo cookies, crushed
# Steps:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
02 -
In a large bowl, combine softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar. Cream together until well incorporated. You can use a spatula or an electric mixer for this step.
03 -
Incorporate the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth and well combined.
04 -
Add flour, baking soda, cornstarch, and salt to the mixture. Fold gently until a soft dough forms, being careful not to overmix.
05 -
Fold in chocolate chips, crushed candy cane pieces, and crushed Oreo cookies until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
06 -
Arrange 6 cookies per batch on the prepared baking tray. Bake for 13-14 minutes until the edges are crisp while centers remain soft and gooey. This is the perfect time to add any additional toppings if desired.
07 -
Allow cookies to rest on the baking tray after removing from the oven as they will continue to bake from residual heat.
# Notes:
01 -
These cookies are intentionally baked large to achieve a chewy, gooey center with crisp edges.
02 -
The cookies will appear very soft in the center when done - this is normal as they will set while cooling.
