Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup (113g) Unsalted Butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 3/4 cup (150g) Granulated Sugar
  • 1/2 cup (100g) Light Brown Sugar, packed
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 3/4 cups (210g) All-Purpose Flour, spooned and leveled
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup (170g) Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined and slightly lighter in colour.
  3. Whisk in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  4. Add the flour, baking soda, and salt directly on top of the wet mixture.
  5. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined. Do not overmix; a few streaks of flour are acceptable.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each mound.
  8. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. The edges should be golden brown, but the centers should still look slightly pale and puffy.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before carefully transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
