ingredients
- 1/2 cup cold butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 large cold egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the cold butter, brown sugar, and sugar until smooth and creamy.
Step 3
Add the cold egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix well until the ingredients are fully incorporated.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and sea salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; this will help ensure a chewy texture.
Step 6
Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
Step 7
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between each cookie.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden but the centers are still soft.
Step 9
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
