    Chocolate chip cookies with crisp edges and a soft and chewy center. These cookies take less than 30 minutes from start to finish!

    Chocolate chip cookies are my favorite cookie of all time. I’ve tried making them with dark chocolate, semi-sweet chocolate, and white chocolate. Milk chocolate chip cookies will forever be my favorite! Double chocolate cookies are a close second although if you love dark chocolate you may prefer those.

    These chocolate chip cookies come out gooey out of the oven but they set very nicely. The best part about this chocolate chip cookie recipe? You most likely have all the ingredients on hand. No fancy ingredients required. This recipe was one of the first recipes I posted on my Youtube Channel. After all these years, it’s still my favorite cookie recipe and I wouldn’t change anything about it.

     

    Why These Chocolate Chip Cookies Are So Good: 

    •  They’re crispy around the edges but soft and chewy in the center.
    • This recipe is incredibly easy to make and you probably have all the ingredients on hand.
    • Cookie dough freezes really well, so if you have a bunch of dough leftover, you can freeze it.

     

    Ingredients You’ll Need: 

    • All-purpose flour
    • Brown Sugar
    • Granulated Sugar
    • Baking Soda
    • Salt
    • Milk Chocolate Chips
    • Eggs
    • Unsalted Butter
    • Vanilla Extract

    ingredients in small bowls, butter, and eggs

    How to Make Chocolate Chip Cookies: 

    Mix the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer for one minute or until smooth.

    Tip: Make sure you use parchment paper or a silicone mat so the cookies don’t stick.

    • Don’t over mix the dough, just mix until everything is well incorporated.
    • Don’t like milk chocolate chips? Use semi-sweet chocolate chips instead.
    • Add some craisins and white chocolate chips if you’d like as well.
