Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup (softened) unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup (packed) light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.75 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until smooth and fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl, and mix until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions 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 brown. The centers may appear slightly underbaked, but they will firm up as the cookies cool.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your quick and delicious cookies!
