Perfect Gooey Chocolate Chip Cookies
Gooey on the inside, golden and crispy on the outside, these sweet, salty, and delightfully buttery cookies are perfect! I dare you to just eat one!
Ingredients
- 1 C unsalted butter (2 sticks - softened)
- 1 C packed brown sugar
- 1/2 C white sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 tsp coarse sea salt (or 1/2 tsp regular salt)
- 2 1/2 C flour all purpose
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 eggs large
- 1-2 C semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Allow butter to soften at room temperature. Once butter is soft, cream together butter, sugars, and vanilla with a hand mixer.
- In a separate bowl (or on top of the wet ingredients), toss together flour, salt, and baking soda. Then, use a mixer to incorporate the wet and dry ingredients until the dough is thoroughly combined and crumbly.
- Add eggs and incorporate with a hand mixer. Then fold in chocolate chips.
- Pop the bowl in the fridge to chill for 10 minutes. This step is very important to keep your cookies from spreading/meshing together in the oven!
- After the dough has chilled for at least 10 minutes (more is fine), take it out and roll spoonful's of dough into ~1.5" balls (pictured below). Arrange these on a baking sheet so the balls are about 2 inches apart.
- Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes! (If they look golden on top right out of the oven you have probably baked them too long - undershot time always produces better results!)
