Spatula or cookie scoop
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup unsalted butter softened to room temperature
- ⅔ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg at room temperature
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips or preferred variety
- ½ cup mini chocolate chips for topping
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Set it aside for now.
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together with a hand or stand mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy. This should take about 2 to 3 minutes. Crack in the egg and pour in the vanilla extract. Mix until everything is fully combined and smooth.
In another bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients. Mix just until everything is blended. Then, use a spatula to fold in the chocolate chips.
Scoop out dough in tablespoon-sized amounts and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie. Press a few extra mini chocolate chips on top of each one.
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still look slightly soft that’s what you want.
Let the cookies sit on the baking sheet for 5 minutes after baking. Then move them to a wire rack to cool completely.
