Get ready to fall in love with the ultimate homemade treat: Kay Roys Chocolate Chip Cookies! This classic recipe combines the perfect balance of buttery richness, chewy centers, and a generous dose of gooey semi-sweet chocolate chips in every bite. Made with a blend of granulated and brown sugar for a hint of caramel-like sweetness, these cookies are elevated by the option of adding crunchy chopped walnuts or pecans for a delightful texture. Ready in just 25 minutes from start to finish, theyβre ideal for satisfying last-minute sweet cravings or impressing guests at your next gathering. Whether enjoyed warm from the oven or stored for later, these golden, bakery-style cookies are your go-to for timeless homemade comfort.
Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until the mixture is light and creamy. This should take about 2β3 minutes with an electric mixer on medium speed.
Add the vanilla extract and eggs to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat until well combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips (and chopped nuts, if using) with a spatula until evenly distributed.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8β10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. The centers may still look slightly underbaked, but they will continue to set as they cool.
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.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Enjoy!
