Chocolate Chip Cookies are the go to cookie and there are probably close to a million ways to make them but always a go to. My recipe is the Nestle Toll House recipe with the addition of corn starch!

Why corn starch? Well I’m not a scientist and I don’t even fully understand why or how but it helps breakdown the proteins in the flour. Why breakdown the proteins in the flour? Well it helps make the cookies softer because I love soft cookies!

We had a blind taste test and the version with corn starch won hands down!

A lot of the corn we grow on our farm is used for corn starch. As a matter of fact between 70 and 80 billion bushels of corn grown in Indiana is used for corn starch.

There used to be a commercial that said “there’s more than corn in Indiana” but personally I’m thankful for all the corn in Indiana and that products we use everyday come from that corn!
