Description
Slightly crisp around the edges, soft and chewy inside with melting chocolate in every bite, these Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies are the real deal. Simple and simply delicious!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper (or bake the cookies in batches).
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and both sugars on medium speed until well combined. (You can also beat by hand or use a hand mixer.)
- Add the egg and vanilla and beat on medium speed until well incorporated. Stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt, then fold in the chocolate chips.
- Scoop 1-tablespoon-size portions of cookie dough a few inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets. Press a few chocolate chips into each scoop of cookie dough.
- Bake the cookies for about 8 to 10 minutes, until golden brown and starting to crisp around the edges. Let the cookies cool completely.
