"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
¾ cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
1 cup packed light or dark brown sugar
1 large egg and 1 egg yolk
2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour (carefulnot to over measure)
2 tsp cornstarch
1 tsp baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

*** ALTERNATIVES***

Make your favorite chocolate chip cookie dough or purchase premade cookie dough

Directions:
Directions:
1) preheat oven to 350º. Spray a 9-inch pie dish or cake pan with nonstick spray. Set aside.

2) In a large bowl using a hand-held mixer or stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat the butter for 1 minute on medium speed until completely smooth and creamy. Add the brown sugar and beat on medium speed until creamy, about 1 minute. Mix in egg, egg yolk, and vanilla on medium-high speed until combined . Scrape down the sides and bottom bowl as needed.

3) In a separate bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt. On low speed, slowly mix into the wet ingredients until combined. The cookie dough will be quite thick. Add 1¼ cups chocolate chips and mix for about 5 seconds until evenly disbursed.

4) Press the cookie dough evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes oruntil the cake is lightly golden brown (could be up to 30 minutes, depending on your oven). Use a toothpick to test for doneness. You may want to cover the cake loosely with aluminum foil after 15 minutes to avoid heavy browning around the edges. Remove from the oven and set the pan on a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, use a sharp knife or metal spatula to loosen the sides of the cookie cake from the pan and transfer to a serving dish (or serve directly from the pan).

5) Decorate the cooled cookie cake with frosting and remaining ¼ cup chocolate chips. The cookie cake remains fresh covered tightly at room temperature for up to 3 days.
