Our Grandma's Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies
There's nothing better than good ol' chewy-in-the-middle, crisp-on-the-edges chocolate chip cookies when you're itching to bake.
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 2 tbs whole milk
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, lightly packed
- 2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 F.
- Whisk to combine egg, milk, and vanilla. Set aside and let warm to room temperature. Sift together flour, salt, and baking soda. Set aside.
- Cream together butter and sugars on medium-high speed until the mixture is light and fluffy. Reduce speed and slowly add egg mixture. Gradually increase the speed and mix until well combined.
- Slowly add the flour mixture, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary, until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Drop by large spoonfuls onto greased or parchment lined pans. Leave at least 2 inches between cookies.
- Bake until edges are beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool on pan for 1-2 minutes before transferring to a wire sheet to cool.
Notes
You can gussy these up with a cup of chopped nuts, or by mixing up the type of chocolate or extract you use.
