The BEST Chocolate Chip Cookies

Printed from: www.grandmotherskitchen.net

Ingredients

Makes: 24

1 cup all purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup butter, at room temperature

1/4 cup + 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar

1/4 cup lightly packed brown sugar

1 egg

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 cup chocolate chips, we used Camino fair trade 71% cacao brand

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or you can grease it with butter. We like using parchment paper as it makes for easy cleanup, means less greasing of pans and things bake nicely on the parchment.

3. Stir the flour, baking soda and salt together in a mixing bowl.

4. Place the butter, sugar and brown sugar and egg into a second mixing bowl and use an electric mixer to cream the ingredients together. Add the vanilla and beat in.

5. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet using a wooden spoon.

6. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly dispersed.

7. Use either a cookie scoop or a tablespoon to form the cookies. Leave about an inch all the way around each cookie.

8. Place into the preheated oven and bake 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

9. Remove from the oven and let sit a couple minutes then transfer the cookies to a cooling rack.

These cookies have a soft texture in the middle and a crispy texture on the outside.

ENJOY!
