- ½ cup butter, cold and cut into small cubes
- ¼ cup sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ¼ tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp almond extract
- 1¼ cups all-purpose flour

- 3/8 tsp salt
- 3/8 tsp baking soda
- ⅓ heaping cup milk chocolate chips
- ⅓ heaping cup white chocolate chips
- ½ cup sliced almonds
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 410° and spray a cookie sheet with nonstick spray. Set the cookie sheet aside.
- In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, mix the butter, sugar, and brown sugar until they are well blended.
- Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and almond extract and mix well.
- Next, add the flour, cornstarch, salt, and baking soda. Mix until the dough is just coming together.
- Gently mix in the two types of chocolate chips and the almonds, trying not to overmix the dough.
