Homemade Chocolate Chip Cookies
There's nothing quite like the smell of freshly baked cookies wafting through your home. With this simple recipe, you’ll be able to impress family and friends with your newfound baking skills.
Ingredients:
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed light-brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon coarse salt
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups semisweet and/or milk chocolate chips
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda; set aside.
- In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugars on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Add the salt, vanilla, and eggs; beat until well combined.
- Gradually add the flour mixture; mix until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula or wooden spoon.
- Drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each ball as they will spread while baking.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden but the centers are still soft. Rotate the baking sheet halfway through for even baking.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your homemade chocolate chip cookies fresh out of the oven or store them in an airtight container for later. They are perfect with a glass of milk, coffee, or even on their own as a delightful treat!
