Extra Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies
Get ready to whip up a batch of these scrumptious cookies that combine the perfect balance of chewy texture and rich chocolate flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Add in the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In another 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 until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Using a cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between each cookie for them to spread.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers should still look soft.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
