Easy Chocolate Chip Cookies

The Chocolate Chip Cookies Hearty breakfast cookies are naturally gluten free, vegan, low in sugar, and not only taste good—they taste incredible. Made in 1 bowl and ready in 27 minutes, these easy Chocolate Chip Cookies will become your new favorite delicious breakfast.

There’s something kind of magical about the smell of warm cookies in the oven because suddenly everything feels okay even though your kitchen might look like a small tornado swept through it which is always the case for me.

These chocolate chip cookies have a little history since the first time I made them, I forgot the baking soda so they came out flat as pancakes but I still ate them and honestly, no regrets.

There’s just something about chocolate chip cookies that turns us into kids again whether it’s the melty chips or the crispy edges paired with gooey centers or even the memories—after-school snacks, midnight cravings, baking with grandma or for me accidentally dropping cookie dough on the dog which was definitely not planned.

And if you’ve ever said “Just one more” and then ended up eating six, there’s absolutely no judgment because these cookies are sneaky like that.

So, if you’re looking for a cookie with the perfect chew plus a bit of crunch and just enough sweetness to make you do a happy dance, you’re definitely in the right place.

Let’s get started but don’t forget the baking soda because I learned that one the hard way.

Ingredients

• 1 cup of unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

How to Make Chocolate Chip Cookies

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a non-stick baking mat.

Mix the wet ingredients: In a big bowl, cream together the softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each one. Then mix in the vanilla extract.

Mix the dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

Combine everything: Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing well until all the flour is gone. Stir in the chocolate chips using a wooden spoon or spatula.

Step 2

Scoop the dough: Use a spoon or cookie scoop to drop balls of dough (about 1.5 tablespoons each) onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave some space between each one so they don’t touch while baking.

Step 3

Bake the cookies: Put the tray in the oven and bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers might still look soft—that’s okay!

Cool and enjoy: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2–3 minutes before moving them to a wire rack. Then it’s time to eat!

Tips for the Best Chocolate Chip Cookies

Soften the butter: Don’t melt it—just let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before you start.

Don’t overmix the dough: Stop mixing once the flour disappears. Overmixing can make the cookies tough.

Test bake: Try baking one cookie first to check the size and baking time before you bake the whole batch.

What To Eat With Chocolate Chip Cookies ?

I love these Chocolate Chip Cookies with a cup of coffee or a hot cup of tea if it’s cold outside it’s always cold somewhere. My kids love to cookies with Fresas Crema Con, and I tried them once and they were surprisingly delicious. Sometimes I put them in their lunchboxes for them to eat at school.
