Christmas Party Jumbo Cookies
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter, cold and cubed
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs, cold
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup red and green baking chips
- 1 cup chopped chocolate chunks (semi-sweet, dark, or milk)
- ⅓ cup holiday sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 410°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the cold, cubed butter with both sugars just until combined and slightly creamy, about 1 to 2 minutes. Do not overmix. Add the cold eggs and vanilla and mix until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until a thick dough forms.
- Fold in the baking chips, chopped chocolate, and sprinkles until evenly distributed.
- Divide the dough into 8 large portions (about 6 ounces each). Shape each portion into tall, rough mounds rather than flattening them. This helps create that signature thick, bakery-style center.
- Bake at 400°F for 8 to 11 minutes, until the edges look set and lightly golden while the centers remain soft and slightly underbaked.
- Allow the cookies to rest on the hot baking sheets for 30 minutes to finish setting, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely for at least 2 hours before serving.
