Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter
• 0.5 cups granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups brown sugar (packed)
• 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 pieces large eggs
• 1 cups chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the vanilla extract and the egg to the creamed mixture, and mix until well combined.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients from the medium bowl into the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until a dough forms. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded scoops of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. The centers may look slightly underdone but will firm up as the cookies cool.

Step 9

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve and enjoy your easy homemade cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
