How to Make Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups chocolate chips
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until well combined.
5. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
6. Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. Don't overbake for soft and chewy cookies.
8. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Enjoy the delicious homemade chocolate chip cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite hot beverage.
10. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week to maintain freshness.
Note: Feel free to customize your chocolate chip cookies by adding nuts, dried fruits, or other mix-ins of your choice. Don't forget to have fun while baking!
