Ultimate Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened

• ¾ cup granulated sugar

• 1 cup packed brown sugar

• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

• 2 large eggs

• 2½ cups all-purpose flour

• 1 teaspoon baking soda

• 1 teaspoon salt

• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

• 1 cup milk chocolate chips

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Beat until the mixture is fluffy and well combined.

3. Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until only a few streaks of flour remain — be careful not to overmix.

5. Fold in both the semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

6. Scoop dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.

7. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly browned and the centers still look a little soft — that’s how you get that perfect chewy texture.

8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for at least 10 minutes. They continue to firm up as they cool, making them easier to enjoy without falling apart.

Enjoy these cookies warm with a glass of milk or let them cool completely for a chewy treat anytime. They’re quick to make, impossible to resist, and perfect for weekend baking adventures!
