I've got a good chocolate chip cookie recipe that calls for corn starch. The cookies hold their shape real well and don't flatten out to much.

It doesn't say how long to chill the dough. I'd think at least an hour, but I've heard of people chilling this dough for over 24 hours.

Willhelm, if you make these, let me know how they turned out.

I wonder what "chilling" does for the cookie batter.

I was all ready about 4 hours ago... no eggs.

I wonder what "chilling" does for the cookie batter.

It has something to do with the distrubution of liquids or something. Supposedly makes for a more caramel-ish cookie.

Oh, no eggs! Bummer.

Willhelm, I was all set to make these this morning to take to the new neighbors and I only had one egg!

D'oh!

Eggs are always the culprit for me.

These are fantastic! The last batch is in the oven. I highly recommend. The outside is crispy, the inside chewy.

I let them chill for about 4 hours. I think longer would be even better! They are almost caramel-y. Oh, I also used dark brown sugar, because that is what I had.

Plus, they are pretty too.

Get baking!

Melt the butter in a heavy-bottom medium saucepan over low heat. Sift together the flour, salt, and baking soda and set aside. 
Pour the melted butter in the mixer’s work bowl. Add the sugar and brown sugar. Cream the butter and sugars on medium speed. Add the egg, yolk, 2 tablespoons milk and vanilla extract and mix until well combined. Slowly incorporate the flour mixture until thoroughly combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. 
Chill the dough, then scoop onto parchment-lined baking sheets, 6 cookies per sheet. Bake for 14 minutes or until golden brown, checking the cookies after 5 minutes. Rotate the baking sheet for even browning. Cool completely and store in an airtight container.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/4C7D0DA2-3175-4137-993E-3E41DBC514FD/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
