New York Times Best Chocolate Chip Cookies

While these may not have been the winner of our Chocolate Chip Cookie Battle Royale, they are still quite delicious. The catch is that you need cake flour, which isn’t a common panty item. It is pretty easy to find and is a cereal sized box, so it’s easy to store once you get some. These are for the people who love buttery, yet crunchy cookies.
