Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened for the best texture
  • ½ cup granulated white sugar
  • ½ cup light brown sugar packed tightly
  • 1 egg large, at room temperature
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 8 oz chocolate chunks or your favorite chocolate
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures your cookies bake evenly.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, granulated white sugar, and light brown sugar. Use a whisk or electric mixer to cream the mixture until it’s light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated. This adds flavor and moisture to your cookies.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking soda. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to tough cookies.
  • Gently fold in the chocolate chunks, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  • Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto a prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them to allow for spreading.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may look slightly underbaked—that’s okay! They’ll continue to firm up as they cool.
  • Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack. Enjoy your TikTok Chocolate Chip Cookies warm or store them for later!

Notes
