Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 piece large egg
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar using a mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the vanilla extract and the large egg to the butter-sugar mixture, and beat until combined.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, blending just until the dough comes together. Do not overmix.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula until evenly distributed.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly undercooked.
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 and enjoy your crumbly chocolate chip cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
