Ingredients
Scale
Wet Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon light brown sugar, packed
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- 1–2 teaspoons milk (as needed)
Dry Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- â…› teaspoon baking soda
Add-ins
- 2 tablespoons chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a small baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Then, add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, mixing well to integrate all the wet ingredients.
- Add Dry Ingredients: Gradually mix in the all-purpose flour and baking soda into the wet mixture. If the dough feels too crumbly, add milk one teaspoon at a time until the dough reaches a soft but manageable consistency.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Fold the chocolate chips evenly into the dough to distribute them thoroughly.
- Shape the Cookie: Form the dough into a round ball, place it on the prepared baking sheet, and gently flatten it to shape the cookie evenly for consistent baking.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Look for golden edges while keeping the center soft for the perfect texture.
- Cool and Enjoy: Remove the cookie from the oven and allow it to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before enjoying it warm.
Notes
- For a gooier cookie, reduce baking time slightly.
- You can substitute chocolate chips with chopped nuts or other mix-ins of your choice.
- If you prefer a crisper cookie, bake closer to 12 minutes.
- Ensure butter is melted but not hot, to avoid cooking the eggs or sugars prematurely.
