Here’s a classic Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe — soft, chewy, and loaded with chocolate chips 🍪🍫
Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven
- Preheat to 375°F (190°C).
- Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Mix wet ingredients
- In a large bowl, cream butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla.
- Mix dry ingredients
- In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Combine
- Gradually mix dry ingredients into wet until just combined.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Scoop and bake
- Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.
- Bake 9–11 minutes until edges are golden but centers are still soft.
- Cool and serve
- Let cookies cool 2–3 minutes on the sheet, then transfer to a wire rack.
Tips
- For chewier cookies, slightly underbake and let them finish cooking on the baking sheet.
- Add a pinch of sea salt on top before baking for a sweet-salty flavor.
- Mix in nuts or white chocolate chips for variety.
I can also give you a soft, bakery-style chocolate chip cookie version that stays chewy for days if you want.
