Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies
Buttery, melt-in-your-mouth soft chocolate chip cookies that are a dreamy indulgence for any time of day. Crisp edges, gooey centers, and rich chocolate pockets make each bite feel like a hug in cookie form.
Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup brown sugar packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups chocolate chips semi-sweet or your favorite kind
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, cream the softened butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden and centers look slightly underbaked.
- Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
These cookies are all about that gooey center and crispy edge combo don’t overbake them! For a decadent twist, try mixing in chopped dark chocolate or swirling a bit of Nutella into the dough. Serve with ice cream for the ultimate dessert.
