Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies
Less sugar than the original creation, but still sweet and a classic American cookie.
Servings: 2 dozen
Ingredients
- 1 cup (150g) flour
- ¾ cup (170g) chocolate chips
- ½ cup (113g) softened butter
- ⅓ cup (75g) brown sugar
- ⅓ cup (67g) white sugar
- 1 large (50g) egg
- ½ tsp (3g) baking soda
- ½ tsp (2.5mL) vanilla
- ½ tsp (2.5g) salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F (190C.)
- Combine flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl.
- In large bowl, beat softened butter and sugars until creamy. Beat in the egg and vanilla until smooth. Stir in flour mixture just until blended. Fold in chocolate chips.
- Drop 1 tbs of batter approximately 2" (5cm) apart on a baking sheet.
- Bake 8 - 12 minutes. (The center will be soft and edges golden brown.) Cool on baking sheet for 2 minutes; remove to wire rack to finish cooling.
Notes
Do not be tempted to over-bake as they finish setting as they cool.
For a thinner cookie, reduce temperature to 350F (180C) and bake 10 - 14 minutes.
