What ingredients do you need for these amazing copycat cookies?

• 1 cup dark brown sugar

• 2 eggs
• 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons molasses
• 1 ½ cup all purpose flour
• 1 cup wheat flour
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips

How to Make Copycat Mrs. Fields Chocolate Chip Cookies

1. In a mixing bowl whisk together the white and brown sugars until combined. Add the butter and switch to a hand mixer to blend together thoroughly and form a paste.
2. To the mixture add the eggs, vanilla and molasses mixing again until just incorporated, be sure to not overmix.
3. Pour in the all purpose and wheat flours, baking soda, and salt, again beating on low speed with the hand mixer until combined. 
4. Fold in the chocolate chips and make sure they are evenly placed throughout the batter.
5. Make about ¼ cup sized cookie dough balls and place on a parchment sheet covered baking sheet.
6. Place a few chocolate chips on top of each dough ball.
7. Cover in plastic wrap and refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes.
8. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees fahrenheit.
9. Make sure the dough balls are at least 2 inches apart and bake for 15-17 minutes until the tops of the cookies have set.
10. They will be lightly browned, but be sure not to overbake as each oven heats differently.
11. Let the cookies cool for 15 minutes on the baking sheet or on a rack. 
12. Serve with milk and enjoy!

Tips and Tricks

Here are a few of my go-to tips and tricks to make these cookies taste like they’re straight from Mrs. Fields’ oven:

1. Quality of ingredients: Always use high-quality ingredients. Unsalted butter, fresh eggs, and good-quality chocolate chips can make all the difference.
2. Baking time: The secret to these cookies’ perfect texture is not to overbake them. They may seem undercooked when you take them out, but they’ll firm up as they cool.
3. Room temperature butter: Ensure your butter is at room temperature for the best results. It should be soft but not melted. This is crucial for achieving that creamy texture in the dough.

Storing Leftovers

Storing your chocolate chip cookies properly is essential to retain their freshness. Once completely cooled, place them in an airtight container.

They should remain fresh for up to a week. For even more prolonged freshness, add a slice of bread to the container. This will help to absorb any excess moisture, keeping the cookies crisp on the outside and soft on the inside.

Freezing Methods

Did you make too much dough? No worries. This dough freezes wonderfully. Here’s what you do:

• Roll the cookie dough into balls and place them on a baking sheet.
• Freeze the dough balls until they’re solid (around an hour should do).
• Transfer the frozen dough balls into a zip-top freezer bag, squeeze out the air, seal, and freeze. They can be stored for up to three months.
• When you’re ready for fresh cookies, just bake the frozen dough balls (no need to thaw) by adding a few extra minutes to the suggested baking time.

Absolutely! This recipe is versatile. You can use semi-sweet, dark, white, or even a combination of your favorite chocolate chips like white chocolate chips.

Yes, adding nuts is a great way to add some crunch. Chopped walnuts or pecans work really well with this recipe. You can also use macadamia nuts too.
