Instructions
Preparation Steps
Heat-treat flour: Spread flour on a baking sheet and bake at 300°F for 10 minutes, stirring once, until it reaches 165°F. Let cool completely.
Cream butter and sugars: In a mixing bowl, beat softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add vanilla, milk, and salt: Mix until smooth.
Mix in cooled flour: Add the cooled, heat-treated flour and beat on low until just combined. If too thick, add a splash of milk.
Fold in chocolate chips: Stir until evenly distributed. Serve immediately or chill for a firmer texture.
