Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams light brown sugar
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 190 grams all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 medium apple (peeled, cored, and finely diced)
- 150 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Gently fold in the diced apple and semi-sweet chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, portion out the dough into small balls (about 1 tablespoon each) and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 5 cm (2 inches) apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still look slightly undercooked, which is fine as they will continue to set while cooling.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the cookies warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
