It’s time for another chocolate chip cookie recipe version, this time it’s all about the cakey factor. In fact this recipe is long past due, the crickets were starting to chirp in this category that’s all about my chocolate cookie blitz, but I keep getting distracted by all the beautiful green things poking through the ground outside. The very last thing I want to do is be on my computer, but because I love you AND I love cookies, here it is.
Truth be told, this is my least favorite way to bake a chocolate chip cookie, but there are legions of chocolate chip cookie fans out there who think this is The Way to make them.
These were a test cookie that the girls at work tasted, to rave reviews of course. I am starting to wonder if they are just starving and love everything I bring in or are scared of me. You decide.
I did like these despite my love of chewy cookies and of course ate a couple, who can complain about a soft cookie with chocolate chips?
Ingredients Needed for the Cakey chocolate chip cookie recipe
2 1/4 cups of flour
3 eggs
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
3/4 cup of butter
1 cup of packed brown sugars
1 tsp vanilla
1 package semi sweet chocolate chips (around 2 cups)
Kick the tires and light the fires to 375 degrees
Cream your butter and sugar together until they are light and fluffy. Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating in completely.Add the vanilla as well.
Whisk together your dry ingredients and add to the butter/sugar mixture. Combine well then add the chocolate chips, mixing until they are spread through the dough evenly.
Drop by well rounded tablespoons onto an ungreased or parchment lined sheet. Do not press them down if you want a lovely rounded top cakey cookie.
Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes until golden brown. They will spread out slightly but still stay wonderfully puffy and cakey.
So for all you cakey cookie lovers out there, this is the chocolate chip cookie recipe for you!
Happy baking!

I just got done making these and they are wonderful! I've already eaten three and a half, and I made BIG cookies lol. I wish they were just a bit sweeter, so next time I might add a couple tablespoons of granulated sugar or use sweeter chocolate (I used dark chocolate chips this time). Very wonderful recipe, thank you so much for sharing!
I just made this recipe and it is certainly a cake tyoe cookie. I think I baked the first sheet a minute too long. They were still soft but dry. Also, as you would expect, there was a difference between a dark single thickness cookie sheet and a bright aluminum air cookie sheet. I will be making them again trying different baking times with different cookie sheets. I liked the suggestion from Kitty to add a tsp of maple flavoring to sweeten them. I would also prefer more chips so might also add another half bag of chips. A very good recipe worth tweaking for personal taste.
These are the best cookies ever! Other recipes are too crunchy or chewy or use cake flour to be obnoxious. I LOVE these!
This recipe is amazing! My cookies came out fluffy and chewy--perfect! I used milk chocolate chips and added a tsp of maple flavoring to make them extra sweet. This is definitely my new favorite cookie recipe! (I baked these at high altitude at 400* for 7 1/2 minutes)
Seems delicious!
I just made these tonight and they are FANTASTIC!!!! I've already shared with my friends on Facebook. Never before had I been able to make soft, cakey cookies. Found this site on a google search for Chocolate Chip cookies and it looks like I will be making a lot of use of it!
