LeGourmetTV Is Now Glen & Friends Cooking!Everyone loves chocolate chip cookies! Here I substitute some of the butter with cream cheese, making these light and chewy.Makes 12 big cookies.Ingredients:½ cup (125 mL) butter, softened¼ cup (60 mL) cream cheese, softened¾ cup (175 mL) packed brown sugar ¼ cup (60 mL) granulated sugar1 large egg2 tsp (10 mL) pure vanilla extract2½ cups (625 mL) all-purpose flour2 tsp (10 mL) cornstarch1 tsp (5 mL) baking sodapinch salt, optional and to taste1 cup (250 mL) semi-sweet chocolate chips1 cup (250 mL) raisins - optional.Method:Preheat oven to 350ºF (180ºC)In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the butter, cream cheese, and sugars; beat on medium-high speed until well-creamed, light and fluffy. Then beat in egg, and vanilla.In another bowl mix the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and optional salt until just combined. Add the dry ingredients to the stand mixer slowly, in a couple of additions.Fold in the raisins and chocolate chips by hand. Chill in the fridge for a half hour.Using a 2" scoop, form heaping mounds and flatten slightly with your hand before baking. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until edges have set and tops are just beginning to set. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a rack to cool completely.#Cookies #CookieRecipes #ChocolateChipCookies Check out our Youtube Recipe Cooking Channel: https://www.youtube.com/legourmettvVisit our Le Gourmet TV Recipes Website: http://www.legourmet.tv/Visit our Homebrew Beer channel: https://www.youtube.com/brewhouselegourmettvVisit our Travel channel: https://www.youtube.com/touristatv-~-~~-~~~-~~-~-Please watch: "
