Cuisine: American
Serves: 24 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will ensure that your cookies bake evenly and develop a nice golden color.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup of unsalted butter, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and 1 cup of brown sugar. Use an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
- Add 2 large eggs to the butter and sugar mixture, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Make sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure everything is well incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. This will help to evenly distribute the leavening agent and salt throughout the flour.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough cookies.
- Fold in 2 cups of chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie to allow for spreading during baking.
- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly underbaked. They will continue to cook on the baking sheet after being removed from the oven.
- Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
- Enjoy your Major Milk Making Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
Tips
- Use room temperature butter and eggs for the smoothest, most consistent dough
- Don't overmix the batter - this can lead to tough, dense cookies
- Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking for thicker, more flavorful cookies
- Use a cookie scoop for uniform cookie sizes and even baking
- Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to help them set properly
- Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to 5 days
- For extra indulgence, try using a mix of milk, dark, and white chocolate chips
- Experiment with adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract for enhanced flavor
