Description
Giant chocolate chip cookies are oversized, soft, and chewy treats packed with gooey chocolate chips.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk chocolate)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until thoroughly combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually incorporate this dry mix into the wet mix until just combined.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips into the dough.
- Scoop portions of dough onto a lined baking sheet, leaving room for spreading.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until the edges are golden and the center looks slightly underbaked.
- Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
For thicker cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking. Use room temperature butter for best results.
