Crispy yet Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies! 🍪🍫

Calling all cookie lovers! Prepare your taste buds for a scrumptious treat that combines the best of both worlds – the perfect balance of crispy edges and a delightfully chewy center. These chocolate chip cookies are not only irresistible but also incredibly easy to make, making them the ultimate go-to recipe for homemade goodies. 🌟✨

A wonderful depth of flavor and that irresistible chewiness that we all crave. It's a match made in cookie heaven! 😍

But it's not just about the flavor; it's also about the experience. One of my favorite parts of baking these cookies is getting to bond with my son. We put on our aprons, gather our ingredients, and dive into the joy of mixing, scooping, and watching the cookies transform in the oven. It's a precious bonding time that we cherish, creating memories and savoring the simple pleasure of baking together. 🧑‍🍳👩‍🍳

Once the heavenly aroma fills our kitchen, we know it's time to indulge.

Picture this: a warm, freshly baked cookie, still slightly gooey in the middle, with a crispy outer layer that delivers a satisfying crunch with every bite. And what better way to enjoy these treats than with a glass of ice-cold milk?

Don't be shy and add lots of those mini chocolate goodness!

The classic combination of cookies and milk is like a match made in dessert paradise. 🥛🍪

But the joy doesn't stop there. These cookies are perfect for sharing with loved ones. Whether it's a special occasion or simply a heartfelt gesture, there's something magical about homemade treats that warm the hearts and taste buds of family and friends. Wrap them up in pretty packages or place them in a jar with a handwritten note, and watch as the smiles light up their faces. 💕

Chocolate Chip Cookies

INGREDIENTS:

• 225g butter (softened)
• 150g granulated sugar
• 230g brown sugar
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 eggs
• 360g flour (sifted)
• 2 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 cups or more! cause why not! chocolate chips /chocolate chunks

INSTRUCTIONS:

👉Whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. Set aside.

👉In a medium bowl, whisk the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until no brown sugar lumps remain. Whisk in the eggs. Finally, add in the vanilla extract.

👉Gradually add in the dry ingredients and mix together with a large spoon or rubber spatula. Oh! and don't forget to add those chocolate chips! The dough will be sticky, but don't worry. 😉

👉Cover the dough tightly and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2–3 hours or up to 3 days. I recommend chilling the cookie dough overnight for better scooping and less spreading while its baking.

👉Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.

👉Using a cookie scoop or Tablespoon measuring spoon, measure 2 tbsp. (about 50g) of dough for medium/large cookies. 

👉Bake the cookies for 12–13 minutes or until the edges are very lightly browned.

These cookies can stay fresh covered at room temperature for up to a week.

Now grab a glass of cold milk and dig in to those yummy goodness! 💗 BON APPETIT!
