Best Chocolate Chip Cookies Ever!

Filed Under: Recipes

Jump to Recipe

Chocolate Chip Cookies and I have had a rocky past. I can never mix them right or cook them right, but this recipe was sooo easy and delicious! I originally got the recipe from Kelly over on In Everything. When I went to fix them I realized I didn’t have the shortening, so I substituted with butter.  Here is the recipe…

Best Chocolate Chip Cookies Ever!

Author By Sarah Halstead

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups firmly packed light brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup Butter
  • 2 Tbs milk
  • 1 Tbs vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. PREHEAT your oven to 375F. Combine the brown sugar, butter, milk and vanilla in a bowl. Beat at medium speed with mixer until light and fluffy. Beat egg into creamed mixture.
  2. COMBINE the flour, salt, and baking soda. Mix into creamed mixture until just blended. Stir in chocolate chips.
  3. DROP rounded tablespoonfuls of dough 3 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheet. {I just got new cookie sheets, I think they made a world of difference also! No sticking and they baked evenly}
  4. BAKE at 375F for 8 to 10 minutes for chewy cookies, or 11 to 13 minutes for crisp cookies. Cool 2 minutes on baking sheet on a cooling rack; remove cookies to rack to cool completely.

These are so delicious.  You have to try them.
