Equipment

  • 1 Oven

Ingredients

  • ½ cup white sugar
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 1 ¼ cup all purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Butter should be microwave-melted and then allowed to cool in the refrigerator. I advise allowing it to cool for ten to fifteen minutes.
  • Set your oven's temperature to 350.
    In a sizable mixing basin, add the dry ingredients, and then whisk thoroughly with a big spoon.
  • Add the butter and vanilla (make sure it has cooled in the fridge or the cookies will turn out way too thin).
    Add the egg, and then blend well with a hand mixer for a further two minutes. Avoid overmixing.
  • Use a big spoon to incorporate the chocolate chunks.
    Measure out the dough with a medium cookie scoop (approximately 1 1/2 tbsp).
    Roll into tall, cylinder-shaped balls as opposed to rounds. They will circle up as they bake.
  • Keep in mind that the cookies will spread somewhat when you place the dough on the baking pan.
    Bake at 350 degrees for 14 to 16 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
