Homemade Jacques Torres Chocolate Chip Cookies

Everyone needs a perfect chocolate chip cookie recipe in their recipe book, and this is definitely mine. These are seriously one of the BEST Chocolate Chip Cookies Ever!

A few years ago there was quite a buzz on a popular recipe that the New York Times featured, it was a close adaptation to the Jacques Torres Chocolate Chip cookies. If you’ve ever had a Jacques Torres cookie then you can agree, they are some darn good cookies.

When I got all the ingredients ready for the NYT recipe, I realized two things. First off, I did not have the type of chocolate Mr. Torres recommends for his cookies and I had no plans to go out and spend $15 to get said chocolate. Second, his recipe called for refrigerating the dough for 36 hours. Wait, what? This girl wants cookies now. Thirty-six hours of waiting? Are you crazy?

So that’s how these QUICK Jacques Torres Chocolate Chip Cookies were made!

Ingredients You Need:

1. All purpose flour
2. Bread flour
3. Baking soda
4. Baking powder
5. Salt
6. Butter
7. Brown sugar
8. Granulated sugar
9. Egg
10. Vanilla extract
11. Chocolate chips
12. Sea salt for sprinkling on top of the cookies

Here’s what I changed in the recipe so everyone can make them:

• I’m using a more budget friendly chocolate (aka store bought chocolate chips).
• I changed the size of the cookie, so we use less ingredients.
• I changed the serving size. I can’t have 72 cookies in my kitchen because I will eat them all.
• I shortened the chill time. No more waiting 36 hours!

Not only are they quite possibly the prettiest chocolate chip cookies I have ever baked, but they also taste SO amazing. They are everything a chocolate chip cookie should be: the perfect chewy texture, sweet with a little salty on top. They’re magic.

How To Make Jacques Torres Chocolate Chip Cookies

Start this cookie recipe like most and mix the flours (all purpose and bread), baking soda, baking powder and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Set aside.

Bread flour really helps cookies obtain a chewy texture. You need to try making my chocolate chip cookies made with bread flour after you make these!

Then, use a hand mixer to cream the butter and sugars together until they are light and fluffy. Add the egg and mix together. Stir in the vanilla.

Now add the dry ingredients in with the butter mixture and continue to mix until all ingredients are fully combined.

Next, add the chocolate chips into the batter and stir by hand, with a spoon, to equally distribute the chocolate chips into the batter.

Transfer the bowl of dough to the refrigerator and chill for 30 minutes. That’s right… just 30 minutes!

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Drop tablespoons of dough on a cookie sheet or silicone baking mats. I can usually fit 12 cookies per sheet. Tip: You might want to add a few more chocolate chips to the top of each cookie, to make for a prettier cookie.

Sprinkle each cookie lightly with sea salt and bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Enjoy these warm cookies fresh from the oven!

Storing Cookies

Store cookies in an airtight container (like a glass jar or cookie tin) or you can place them in a sealed plastic bag. Chocolate Chip Cookies can last for 2-3 weeks, but will harden as they continue to seat.
