Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar (light or dark)
- 0.5 cup Butter, softened
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and fluffy.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract 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 ingredients, stirring until a dough forms. If using chocolate chips, fold them in at this stage.
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers will remain soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy warm or store the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
