Level: | Easy |
Total: | 25 min |
Active: | 10 min |
Yield: | 12 cookies |
Ingredients
- 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg, at room temperature
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (about 1 cup)
Instructions
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- Whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Beat the butter and both sugars in another large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the egg to the butter mixture, beating to incorporate, then beat in the vanilla. Reduce the speed to medium, add the flour mixture and beat until just incorporated. Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Scoop 12 balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet (about 1 heaping tablespoon per dough ball) and place them about 2 inches apart. Bake until the cookies are golden but still soft in the center, 11 to 13 minutes. Let the cookies cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
