Ultimate Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the ideal temperature for baking, which is 325 degrees Fahrenheit or 165 degrees Celsius.
2
Next, prepare your baking surfaces by either greasing them with a suitable cooking spray or lining them with parchment paper to prevent cookies from sticking.
3
Sift the dry ingredients - flour, baking soda, and salt - together in a bowl to ensure they are well combined. Set the mixture aside for later use.
4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, melted butter, and white sugar. Use an electric mixer to blend these ingredients until they form a smooth mixture.
5
Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla to the bowl with the sugar mixture. Continue mixing until the ingredients are light and creamy in texture.
6
Gradually incorporate the flour mixture into the sugar mixture, stirring until just combined to avoid overmixing.
7
Add chocolate chips to the dough and stir gently to distribute them evenly throughout.
8
Scoop spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 3 inches of space between each cookie to allow for proper spreading during baking.
9
Place the prepared cookies in the preheated oven and bake until the edges are golden brown, taking approximately 15 to 17 minutes.
10
Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool for a short period of time on the baking sheets before transferring them to a wire rack to continue cooling completely.
