Hello there Live Laugh Rowe friends!  This is Katie from The Casual Craftlete blog.  Today, I am subbing in for Kelly while she is recovering from shoulder surgery.  I’m sharing this Classic Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe that should be a staple in your recipe box.  These cookies are crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside, just like they should be.  There are no strange additives, just simple real baking ingredients.  Cookies are such an amazing comfort food and a delicious dessert.  These Classic Chocolate Chips Cookies are the best!  Grab a tall glass of milk or cup of coffee and let’s get to this recipe.

Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies are loved by pretty much everyone.  It’s one of the first sweet treats you have as a kid and are carried all throughout your life.  There is just something about the buttery sweetness of the cookie and milk chocolate chips that just warms your heart and melts in your mouth.  I think with such a classic cookie recipe, it is best to stay simple and true.  This recipe is my all time favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe.

Classic Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

Author The Casual Craftlete

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup butter softened (1 stick)
• 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 1 egg
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup milk chocolate morsels

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper, and set aside.  In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, packed brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.  *I like to use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
3. Mix in flour, baking soda, and salt.  Turn the mixer down to medium-low speed and mix until combined.  Fold in chocolate chips with a spoon or spatula just until combined.
4. Use a large cookie scoop or a spoon to shape the dough into balls (equivalent to 3 Tablespoons), and place the scooped dough on lined baking sheets.  Chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.  *I place 6 cookie dough balls per baking sheet.  The cookies are big and will spread out quite a bit.
5. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set and golden brown.
6. Cool cookies on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes, then transfer to wire cooling racks to finish cooling.
7. Serve immediately or store in an air-tight container for up to 1 week.
