Happy Friday everyone! With a house still full of sickness I decided to bake some chocolate chip cookies this week. They brought great comfort and were a big hit with their crispy outside and gooey inside. Hope you all have a great weekend.

Ingredients

2 cups of all-purpose flour (I used wholemeal spelt flour)
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
190mL baking oil
1/2 C of granulated white sugar
3/4 C of firmly packed golden brown sugar
1 teaspoon of kosher salt
2 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract
1 large egg
1 large egg yolk
2 cup of semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 190C degrees and line baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour and baking soda.
In the bowl of a stand mixer with paddle attachment, combine oil, both sugars, vanilla and salt. Beat on medium speed until well combined, about 2 minutes.
Add egg and egg yolk, scraping down sides of bowl as necessary.
Add in flour mixture and continue mixing until incorporated.
Add in chocolate chips and give a final stir.
Dough will be soft, but should be firm enough to shape into balls.
Place cookie dough on baking sheet and top with additional milk chocolate chips.
Bake about 9 minutes, just until edges are a light golden brown.
Don't over bake as cookie will continue baking as it cools.
Enjoy
