These chocolate chip cookies have crispy edges, chewy centers, and gooey chocolate throughout—easy to make and irresistibly delicious, perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (or mix of milk and dark)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream the softened butter with brown and granulated sugars until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until just combined.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips evenly.
  7. Drop tablespoon-sized dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are golden and centers look slightly soft.
  9. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2–3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Chill dough for thicker cookies.
  • Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking for a gourmet touch.
  • Store with a slice of bread to keep cookies soft.
  • Use chopped chocolate for gooey pools instead of chips.
