Chocolate Chip Cookies

Jump to Recipe

Introducing our delectable chocolate chip cookies recipe! If you're in the mood to elevate this classic treat, we have a simple yet irresistible twist for you: dark chocolate chunks and a sprinkle of sea salt on top.

Preheat your oven to 375. Now, gather the key ingredients: unsalted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, baking soda, salt, vanilla extract, all-purpose flour and semi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks.

In a bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, baking soda, salt and vanilla extract. This is where the cookie magic starts to come together. Next, slowly add the all-purpose flour to the mix. Incorporate it gently, allowing the dough to form and blend all the flavors together.

Now comes the star of the show: the semi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks. Stir them into the dough, evenly distributing those bursts of chocolatey goodness throughout. Grab a greased cookie sheet and drop teaspoonfuls of the dough onto it, making sure to leave about 2 inches of space between each cookie. This gives them room to spread and develop that perfect crispy edge while remaining soft and chewy on the inside.

Slide the cookie sheet into the preheated oven and let the cookies bake for 12-15 minutes, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown. Keep an eye on them as they transform into little delights of perfection. If you want to take it up a notch, go ahead and sprinkle a touch of sea salt on top. The contrast between the sweet and salty flavors will leave you wanting more.

As the aroma fills your kitchen and the cookies begin to cool, you'll find it hard to resist reaching for one (or maybe two!). These chocolate chip cookies are a true baking staple, loved by kids and adults alike. So go ahead, take a bite, and experience the joy of homemade goodness.
