How To Make Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies
If you are a chewy cookie lover, I am going to share with you the secret to chewy chocolate chip cookie perfection and my favorite Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe.
I am a huge chocolate chip cookie lover. Like, seriously, give me a good cookie and I am in heaven. I am also a cookie dunker. Add a glass of cold milk to the mix and I am literally excited, perhaps far too excited.
If you have a favorite cookie recipe, one change can take it from the ho-hum cookie zone to the chewy cookie zone and that ingredient is Karo® Corn Syrup. When I was growing up we used Karo® Corn Syrup instead of maple syrup on pancakes and waffles. I was totally shocked to find out that everyone didn't do that because it was so good, and then, when I started to bake regularly, I realized how Karo® Corn Syrup added that extra special something to not just my traditional Thanksgiving Pecan
How To Substitute Karo® Corn Syrup in Recipes
My basic rule of thumb is to substitute sugar, brown sugar, etc., equally with Karo® Corn Syrup. If the recipe calls for 2 cups of sugar, you can use one cup of sugar and one cup of Karo® Corn Syrup. I have some recommendations to make it 1.5 to 1 ratio and depending on how much sweetness you desire, you can certainly do that but I don't recommend more than that; in my opinion 1:1 up to 1.5:1 is the best ratio!
Why Use Karo® Corn Syrup in Cookie Recipes
I like to use Karo® Corn Syrup to get the best, chewiest cookies around. It adds a wonderful chewy texture but the inside of the cookie remains soft. Honestly, cookie perfection and it is such a trusted brand with over 100 years of quality over multiple generations.

OH Mary Beth!! Your cookies look AMAZING!! Okay... I seriously need a napkin after staring at them. LOL
Sounds YUMMY! How much vanilla did you use? Also about how many cookies does it make? Thank you
Hi Cathy! I am so sorry I forgot to add that. My husband has been in the hospital and I was slightly distracted. You'll use 1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and the recipe will yield about 3 dozen regular-sized cookies or 18 medium. I started out making regular cookies but with the second half made them slightly larger. I hope that helps!
