Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

American · Dessert · 25 min total

Classic homemade chocolate chip cookies with a soft, chewy center and crispy edges. This foolproof recipe yields perfectly balanced cookies every time.

Ingredients

• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
3. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to butter mixture, mixing until just combined.
5. Fold in chocolate chips.
6. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.
7. Bake for 9-11 minutes, until edges are golden but centers are still soft.
8. Cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

Tips

• For chewier cookies, chill dough for 30 minutes before baking.
• Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
• Freeze unbaked dough balls for up to 3 months; bake directly from frozen, adding 1-2 minutes.
