Servings: 108 Mini Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter, room temperature
- ¾ cup brown sugar, packed
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 2 ⅓ cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ cups mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar.
- Add eggs, one at a time, and beat well after each addition. Add vanilla and mix.
- In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking soda and salt together.
- Add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and beat well until fully incorporated.
- Stir in mini chocolate chips.
- Using a ½ teaspoon cookie scoop, roll dough into balls and place on prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in preheated oven for 5-6 minutes or until edges start to slightly brown.
- Remove from oven and let cookies cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire cooling rack.
Notes
- Mix the dough until just combined. Don't overmix, or the cookies will be tougher.
- Fold the chocolate chips into the dough; don't stir them in. This helps limit gluten formation and makes softer cookies.
- Remove the cookies from the oven as soon as the edges begin to turn golden. Carry-over cooking time from the baking sheet will finish baking them to perfection.
