Tried and True Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipes

Here are some more favorites! This is a list of my most tried and-true chocolate chip cookie recipes.  It doesn't mean the other ones aren't good, but these are the chocolate chip cookie recipes I use the most.

Updated Slightly

I've updated the tried and true list a bit with some new favorites such as the Olive Oil Chocolate Chunk and Joanne Chang's old recipe from The Atlantic. There are a few more that need to be added.

Olive Oil Chocolate Chunk -- Makes a fairly small batch. Quick to put together.

Big, Flat, Chocolate Chunk Cookies -- If for some reason you want to make chocolate chip cookies with cake flour, this is good recipe.

European Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies -- My nephew's favorite.

Minnie's Bake Shop Thick Chocolate Chunk Cookies -- My brother in law's favorite.

Joanne Chang's Recipe from The Atlantic -- This one's not my go-to these days, but people love it so I've added it to the list.

Crispy Mini Chip Cookies -- These are tiny, crispy chocolate chip cookies.  They're kind of tedious to shape, but worth it.

Bon Appetit Chocolate Chip -- The dough can be stirred together in one saucepan, and the cookies are really good.  They're chewy and pretty soft.  I use light brown sugar rather than dark.

All Butter Crunchy Chocolate Chip Cookies -- People seem to like this recipe.  For some reason it's popular in Europe.

Thomas Keller's Chocolate Chip Cookies from Ad Hoc at Home.  Dense, with lots of dark brown sugar.

Chocolate Chip Cookies with Oil -- Good for when you are out of butter.  I like to experiment with different types of oil.

Vanilla-Rich Chocolate Chip Cookies -- A basic recipe that's very good.

New York Times Chocolate Chip -- Favorite of all. The longer the dough is chilled, the better the cookies. I don't recommend the recipe for use with regular semisweet chocolate chips. It's best with larger bittersweet chips (Ghirardelli) and even better with high end chocolate disks (Guittard) or feves.

Giant Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake -- Perfect for if you want to bake and decorate a giant chocolate chip cookie cake.

Extraordinary Chocolate Chip -- A favorite basic chocolate chip cookie recipe. Land o' Lakes has a similar one that calls for baking powder instead of baking soda.

Bran Flakes Buffalo Chip Cookies -- Technically these are more of an oatmeal cookie, but I'm including them on this list anyway.

Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies -- I really love this recipe. Also, if you can't find Soom or want to save some money, there's another good brand of Tahini on Amazon called Baron's Kosher. You probably can't get it now, but keep it in mind for the future.

Jumbo 3 Chip Cookies -- Recipe I always forget about and regret forgetting about.

Bisquick Chocolate Chip Cookies -- Low on ingredients but have some Bisquick? These aren't terrible.

Raisin Bran Chocolate Chip Cookies are ones I make fairly often. They are also great made with Bran Flakes.

Malted Milk Chocolate Chunk Cookies. I usually like semisweet or bittersweet chips in cookies, but the malted milk powder in this recipe goes really well with the milk chocolate.
