Notes
Chilling dough is essential for thicker, chewier cookies.
Use bread flour for better structure.
Feel free to mix different types and sizes of chocolate chips for texture.
Store in airtight containers with a slice of bread to maintain softness.
Dough can be frozen in portions and baked later; add 1-2 minutes to baking time when baking from frozen.
