The Essential Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375°F; lightly grease two baking sheets.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, cream the butter, sugars, corn syrup, and vinegar together; then beat in the eggs.

Step 3

Beat in the vanilla, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.

Step 4

Stir in the flour and chocolate chips.

Step 5

Drop the dough by the tablespoonful onto the prepared baking sheets.

Step 6

Bake for 10 minutes, until they are just set; the centers may still look a bit underdone.

Step 7

Remove them from the oven; transfer to a rack to cool.
