Indulge in the ultimate comfort treat with these Chewy Choco Chip Cookies—perfectly soft, golden, and loaded with gooey bursts of semi-sweet chocolate in every bite. This easy-to-make recipe combines pantry staples like all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and rich vanilla extract to create cookies with a delicate balance of sweetness and a hint of saltiness. The secret lies in creaming softened butter with two kinds of sugar for a luxuriously tender texture, while a short baking time ensures irresistibly chewy centers. Ready in just 25 minutes, these cookies are a go-to for satisfying your sweet tooth, impressing guests, or prepping for a bake sale. Enjoy them fresh out of the oven for melty goodness, or save them in an airtight container to savor throughout the week. Perfect for cookie lovers everywhere!
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl, and beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look just slightly underdone.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your chewy choco chip cookies while they're still warm, or store them in an airtight container for up to a week.
