Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies
 
Ingredients
  • 2 Sticks of butter (16 oz), room temperature
  • 1 cup of sugar
  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons of vanilla
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, beat the soft butter with the sugars until creamy.
  3. Add vanilla and egg and mix until just incorporated. You do not want to beat the egg too long.
  4. Add the flour, baking soda and salt. Mix until small crumbles form then use your hands to press the crumbles together.
  5. Add the chocolate chips and mix in by hand.
  6. Roll the dough into balls of desired size (I go small... #toddlerlife) and bake for 10 minutes. Do not over bake. Even if they don't look "done," remove and place on a cooling rack.
  7. Enjoy right away, in 30 minutes, in a few days when stored in an airtight container or freeze!
