Description
Delicious, ultra-thick chocolate chip cookies bursting with rich chocolate goodness and a chewy texture, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large eggs
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups chocolate chips (a mix of semisweet and dark)
- 14 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
- Optional: Extra chocolate chips and flaky sea salt for topping
Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt until combined.
- In another bowl, mix the granulated sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gradually incorporate the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies tender.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Form dough balls and place them on the baking sheet, leaving room between each one.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until the edges are golden and the centers are slightly underbaked for that gooey texture.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to finish cooling.
Notes
For a delightful experience, serve with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt or pair with milk or ice cream.
