Chocolate Chip Cookies

As some of you know, I bake and am a creator of yummy things. One of them is my chocolate chip cookie. If you are a cookie connoisseur such as myself, you have likely both seen and made several chocolate chip recipes. Usually the ingredients are the same, but it's the quantity of certain ones that will affect the outcome of this sweet treat. More brown sugar equals a chewier cookie, whereas using all white will bake a crisp cookie with a snap.

Below I am sharing my gooey chocolate chip cookie recipe. Oh, and just letting you know, it's perfect for making Ice Cream Sandwiches!

Ingredients

2-1/2 cup all purpose flour

2 cups chocolate chips (semi sweet or milk)

2 eggs

1 cup salted butter (room temp)

1 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup white sugar

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp vanilla

Method

Preheat oven to 375C and grease or line parchment paper to cookie sheet.

Using an electric mixer, cream the butter for a minute or two on medium speed. Add white and brown sugars and beat until smooth, about 5 minutes on medium to high speed. Slowly beat in eggs and vanilla.

After a minute, slowly add the baking soda, flour and chocolate chips on low speed (unless you want flour everywhere! hehe) and mix until it becomes a dough. Reserve some chips to press into top of cookies to give that visual yumminess.

Refrigerate for 10 minutes, then scoop out a spoonful at a time and roll into balls. Place on cookie sheet and bake for 10 minutes. 

You'll want the centre of the cookie to be soft. Let the cookies cool for 20 minutes, and you'll have a decadent gooey treat. Makes 20-24 

Enjoy!
