Preparation

Step 1

1. Mix the flour, baking soda, cornstarch and salt together in a large bowl. Set aside.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter and both sugars until it's mixed well. Whisk in the egg and egg yolk, then the vanilla.

3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix with a wooden spoon until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.

4. Chill in the fridge for at least 1/2 an hour.

5. Take the dough out of the fridge and let soften for a few minutes. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Place a Silpat or parchment paper on a large cookie sheet.
