- Add flour, baking soda, corn starch, and salt, mixing just until combined.

- Scoop out about 1/4 cup of cookie dough for each cookie, rolling into smooth balls. Chill on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 1 hour or in the freezer for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- Arrange dough balls about 3 inches apart on a parchment-lined or silicone mat-lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until edges are golden and the center looks slightly under baked.

Notes
For thicker cookies, chill the dough longer before baking.
Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor.
These cookies can be frozen for longer storage; just thaw before baking.
