These are the best chocolate chip cookies! They are the chewiest, softest, most delicious cookies! My favorite is the slightly crispy texture on the outside that matches the chewiness on the inside. These are the ultimate cookies that are bursting with chocolate in every bite! The best part is these cookies are super easy to whip up using just a few basic ingredients.

1 egg
1 tsp of baking soda
1 c. of softened butter
2 ¼ c. of all-purpose flour
¾ c. of packed brown sugar
1 tsp of vanilla
¾ c. of granulated sugar
2 c. of semisweet chocolate chips
1 c. of coarsely chopped nuts, optional
½ tsp of salt
How to make Chocolate Chip Cookies
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 375 degrees F.
Step 2: In a bowl, place the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
Step 3: Place the softened butter and sugar in a different bowl. Beat using an electric mixer on medium speed, scraping the sides of the bowl often until fluffy.
Step 4: Whisk the egg and vanilla until smooth, then add this into the flour mixture. Mix well, then fold on the chocolate chips and nuts.
Step 5: In an ungreased baking pan, drop the dough with a rounded tbsp full, leaving about 2 inches of space between each dough.
Step 6: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 8 to 10 minutes or until light brown. Remove from the oven when done, and allow the cookies to cool on the pan for about 2 minutes. Then, transfer them to a cooling rack to cool completely. You can keep these cookies in an airtight container.
Tips:
Place the pan on the middle oven rack when baking for best results.
I recommend using shiny aluminium with a smooth surface and no sides cookie sheets for this recipe.
