Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips, divided
  • 1/2 batch chocolate buttercream frosting

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Spray pan with cooking spray or line with parchment paper cut into the shape of the pan if using a giant cookie pan.
  2. In a large bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  3. Add egg and vanilla and mix well.  
  4. Add flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt and mix well.  
  5. Stir in 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips and spread cookie dough into prepared pan.  Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of chocolate chips over the top and press gently into the cookie dough.  
  6. Bake for 14-16 minutes until golden brown.  Cool completely.
  7. Make chocolate buttercream frosting.  Pipe swirls of frosting around the border, then cut and serve.

Notes

If baking in an 8-inch or 9-inch pan, the cookie will take 5-8 minutes longer to bake.
