Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Keyword: chewy cookies, chocolate chip cookies, chocolate cookies, easy cookies
Servings: 18

Ingredients

  • 125 gram butter melted
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla essence
  • 1 large egg
  • 1&1/4 cup cake wheat flour or all purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 160 degrees Celsius. Line 2 trays with parchment paper and set aside
  • Beat the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar together until combined. Mix in the vanilla essence
  • Beat in the egg and vanilla essence. Add the flour, salt and bicarbonate of soda and mix until combined
  • Add the chocolate chips and mix well. You should have a soft cookie dough
  • Scoop up a level ice-cream scoop of cookie dough and place on the lined cookies tray. Place more chocolate chips on top of each cookie if you wish. Place them a few centimetres apart as they will spread
  • Place them in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Remove them after an hour and gently flatten the tops just a little, with the back of a spoon
  • Bake at 160 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes. If you prefer crispy cookies bake a little longer. Cookies will still be soft when removed from the oven. Place them on a cooling rack to cool

Notes

  1. I used light brown sugar for these cookies but dark brown sugar is perfectly fine
  2. When in the oven keep a careful eye on it, depending on your oven you may need to adjust the baking time
  3. If you prefer a more crisp cookie you can bake them for a few extra minutes
