Three Hundred Chocolate Chip Cookies

With three hundred cookies at your fingertips, you’ll be the ultimate crowd-pleaser! These chewy, chocolate-studded treats are perfectly portioned out for six servings, making them ideal for parties, potlucks, or just satisfying your own sweet tooth.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 3/4 cup white granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

Set aside.

In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.

Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Stir in the chocolate chips.

Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Divide the cookies among 6 servings.

Notes

Use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor.

If using room temperature butter, make sure it’s soft but not melted.

Don’t overmix the dough as it can lead to tough cookies.

Leave about 2 inches of space between each cookie to allow for spreading during baking.

If you want a chewier cookie, bake for 9-10 minutes.

For a crisper cookie, bake for 12-13 minutes.

These cookies freeze well, so consider freezing a few for up to 2 months.

Best served fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
