Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper. This helps cookies bake evenly and prevents sticking during baking.
Mix Dry Ingredients
- Take a bowl and add flour, baking soda and salt. Mix well using a spoon. Keep this mixture aside for later use in dough preparation.
Cream Butter and Sugar
- In another bowl, beat butter, brown sugar and white sugar. Mix until smooth and creamy. This step gives cookies a soft and rich texture.
Add Eggs and Vanilla
- Add eggs one by one into the butter mixture. Mix well after each egg. Then add vanilla extract and blend everything until smooth and fluffy.
Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures
- Slowly add dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Mix gently until dough forms. Do not overmix to keep cookies soft and light in texture.
Add Chocolate Chips
- Fold in chocolate chips using a spatula. Make sure they spread evenly in the dough. This gives chocolate flavor in every bite.
Shape the Cookies
- Scoop small portions of dough and place on the tray. Leave space between each cookie. This allows them to spread while baking.
Bake the Cookies
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes. Edges should turn golden brown. The center will stay soft and slightly gooey.
Cool and Serve
- Remove cookies from oven and let them cool on a rack. Serve warm for best taste. Enjoy soft and chewy cookies with melted chocolate.
Notes
- Use room temperature butter for smooth mixing.
- Do not overbake cookies to keep them soft.
- Chill dough for 15 minutes for better shape.
- Use good quality chocolate chips.
- Add nuts for extra crunch and flavor.
