INGREDIENTS 

• Butter 1/2 cup (113 g)


• Granulated sugar 1/2 cup (99 g)


• Brown sugar packed 1/4 cup (54 g) 


• Vanilla extract 2 tsp


• Egg 1 large


• All purpose flour 1 3/4 cups (210 g)


• Baking soda 1/2 tsp


• Kosher salt 1/2 tsp


• Semi-sweet chocolate chips 1 cup (170 g)

INSTRUCTIONS

• Preheat the oven to 350 F.


• Microwave the butter for about 40 seconds. Butter should be completely melted but shouldn't be too hot.


• In a large bowl, mix butter with the sugar until well-combined.


• Stir together vanilla and egg until incorporated.


• Add the flour, baking soda, and salt.


• Mix dough until just combined. Dough should be soft and a little sticky but not overly sticky.


• Stir in chocolate chips.


• Scoop out 1.5 tablespoons of dough (medium cookie scoop) and place on baking sheet.


• Bake for 7-10 minutes, or until cookies are set. They will be puffy and still look a little under-baked in the middle

Don’t do the following: 

• Don’t fluff and then scoop and sweep to measure the flour. Too much flour will result in a dry or crumbly cookie.


• Don't over-bake the cookies: We suggest starting with the listed baking time and increasing the time as needed.
