Make a batch of this chocolate chip cookie dough from David Leite (or
any drop cookie dough, really), roll it into balls and freeze them in
layers separated by parchment or wax paper in an airtight container.
Whenever the desire strikes, new parents can bake off a cookie directly
from the freezer. Write the baking instructions on an index card and
tape it to the top of the container.

Title: N.Y.T. Chocolate Chip Cookies
Categories: Cookies, Snacks, Chocolate
Yield: 18 servings
2 c Minus 2 tb cake flour (8 1/2
- oz)
1 1/3 c Bread flour (8 1/2 oz)
1 1/4 ts Baking soda
1 1/2 ts Baking powder
1 1/2 ts Coarse salt
1 1/4 c Unsalted butter
1 1/4 c Light brown sugar (10 oz)
1 c + 2 tb granulated sugar (8
- oz)
2 lg Eggs
2 ts Natural vanilla extract
1 1/4 lb Bittersweet chocolate disks
- or fèves; at least 60%
- cacao content
Sea salt
Sift flours, baking soda, baking powder and salt into a
bowl. Set aside.
Using a mixer fitted with paddle attachment, cream
butter and sugars together until very light, about 5
minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each
addition. Stir in the vanilla. Reduce speed to low, add
dry ingredients and mix until just combined, 5 to 10
seconds. Drop chocolate pieces in and incorporate them
without breaking them. Press plastic wrap against dough
and refrigerate for 24 to 36 hours. Dough may be used in
batches, and can be refrigerated for up to 72 hours.
When ready to bake, set oven @ 350ºF/175ºC. Line a
baking sheet with parchment paper or a nonstick baking
mat. Set aside.
Scoop 6 3 1/2 ounce mounds of dough (the size of
generous golf balls) onto baking sheet, making sure to
turn horizontally any chocolate pieces that are poking
up; it will make for a more attractive cookie. Sprinkle
lightly with sea salt and bake until golden brown but
still soft, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer sheet to a wire
rack for 10 minutes, then slip cookies onto another rack
to cool a bit more. Repeat with remaining dough, or
reserve dough, refrigerated, for baking remaining
batches the next day. Eat warm, with a big napkin.
