Drop a comment down below and let me know.
Let's get started.
First preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Then we start with 1 cup of softened butter, 1
half cup of white granulated sugar, 1 cup of packed brown sugar, okay now using a hand
mixer or stand mixer, let's cream this all together, once it is creamed together let's
go ahead and scrape down the sides, at this point we are going to add our eggs, one at
a time, first large egg, now let's add two teaspoons of vanilla extract, now we take
2 and a half cups of all purpose flour, we will add one tsp. of baking soda, on half
tsp. of salt.
Then we will go ahead and use a whisk or you can sift it together, and we will mix it all
together.
All right now let's take our flour and we are going to just add about a third of it
at a time, mix, alright add some more flour, now we want to scrape the sides as needed,
add more flour, and then before I add the rest of the flour, at this step I am going
to add 2 cups of chocolate chips, these are semi-sweet, you can you use milk chocolate
as well, this equals about one package here in the States, I am going to mix those in.
Okay, and then let's add the rest of our flour, then one last scraping of the sides.
Alright our cookie dough is done, and now what we are going to do is we need to separate
our beaters and now time to clean off those beaters, and then you can just use your spatula,
come in here and push them out.
Alright once our cookie dough is done, it is time to form our cookies, I am using a
cookie sheet with an Artisan Mat on top, this is a Silicone baking mat, really awesome,
really love these silicon baking mats, they clean really easy, they last a really long
time, they help to keep the cookies from getting burnt on the bottom, and uh, if you want to
pick a couple of these up, I will put a link down below where you can get them, really
awesome, I highly recommend them especially for cookies.
So what we do is we take a spoon or ice cream scoop and we take some cookie dough, it's
about 2 tablespoons worth, and go ahead and drop it on there, and you can form it a little
bit, with your hand if you want, just like that, whatever side you want to make, big
ones, little ones, whatever you want to make, about an inch and a half apart.
All right and then you bake these in the oven at 350 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes, depending
on the size of the cookie, if you make them bigger, bake them a little longer, smaller
a little shorter, until the edges are just slightly brown.
All right so we cook them until the edges are just slightly brown right there, and then
you take them out of the oven and let them sit on the cookie sheet, for about 5 minutes
to cool before transferring them to a cookie rack to cool the rest of the way.
Alright I am going to show you the bottom of this cookie, look at that, nice golden
brown, pretty awesome.
All right our chocolate chip cookies are done, they turned out amazing, super soft and chewy,
mmm delicious, this recipe makes 2.5 to 3 dozen chocolate chip cookies, depending on
the size, they are really easy to make, if I can do it, you can do it.
