Description

Soft and chewy chocolate chip cookies with crispy edges, loaded with rich chocolate chips. A perfect balance of buttery sweetness and melt-in-your-mouth texture!

For the Cookies
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 ½ cups semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
  1. 1
    Prepare the Dough
    • In a mixing bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
    • Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in vanilla extract.
  2. 2
    Mix the Dry Ingredients
    • In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. 3
    Combine & Add Chocolate Chips
    • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
    • Fold in chocolate chips.
  4. 4
    Chill the Dough
    • Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes (this helps the cookies stay thick and chewy).
  5. 5
    Bake the Cookies
    • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    • Scoop dough into tablespoon-sized balls and place them 2 inches apart.
    • Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are golden but the centers look slightly underbaked.
  6. 6
    Cool & Enjoy
    • Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
