✅ Step 3: Add Eggs & Vanilla

Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition. Stir in vanilla.

In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet mixture until just combined.

✅ Step 5: Add Chocolate Chips

Fold in chocolate chips evenly.

✅ Step 6: Scoop & Bake

Scoop dough into tablespoon-sized balls and place 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Bake for 9–11 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are just set.

Let cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.


πŸͺ Cookie Tips & Variations

  • Want extra soft cookies? Slightly underbake and let them cool fully
  • Use chopped dark chocolate for gourmet-style pockets of gooeyness
  • Add a pinch of sea salt on top before baking for a flavor boost
  • Swap in white chocolate, peanut butter chips, or nuts

🧊 Storage & Freezing

  • Room Temp: Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week
  • Freezer: Freeze baked cookies for up to 3 months, or freeze cookie dough balls and bake as needed
  • Reheat: Microwave cookies for 10 seconds for that fresh-baked feel!

πŸ” FAQ – Chocolate Chip Cookies

Q: Why are my cookies flat?
Check that your butter wasn’t too warm and that your baking soda is fresh.

Q: Can I make them gluten-free?
Use a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend and check that your chocolate chips are gluten-free.
