🥘 Ingredients

11 items

• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract

• 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips

📝 Instructions

11 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).

3. Add the eggs one at a time to the creamed mixture, beating well after each addition.

4. Stir in the vanilla extract and Kahlua until fully combined.

5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.

7. Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

8. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop 2-tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.

9. Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly underbaked (they’ll continue to cook on the baking sheet as they cool).

10. Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

11. Serve warm or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Enjoy!
