Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Cream the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  2. Beat in the egg and vanilla until smooth and fully combined, scraping the bowl as needed.
  3. Stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt gently until no dry flour remains. Do not overmix.
  4. Fold in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  5. Scoop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until edges are set and lightly golden.
  6. Let the cookies rest on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack or plate to serve warm.

Notes

Bake in two batches, keeping the remaining dough at room temperature. The second batch may bake a touch faster since the pan is already hot, so check a minute early. If you want slightly thicker cookies, chill the shaped dough for 20 minutes before baking.
