01 / WHAT YOU NEED

Ingredients

2 tablespoons unsalted butter 1 tablespoon brown sugar 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon semisweet chocolate chips 1 pinch salt (Optional) 1 pinch baking powder (Optional) 1 splash vanilla extract (Optional)

02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

Step 1

Start by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to keep things from sticking. In a small bowl, cream together the butter and sugar with an electric mixer until the mixture is smooth and fluffy. Next, add the flour, salt, baking powder, and vanilla extract, mixing everything until it comes together nicely. Fold in the chocolate chips so they’re evenly spread throughout the dough. Shape the dough into a single cookie and place it on your prepared baking sheet. Pop it in the oven and bake for about 9 to 12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden and look set. Let it cool down a bit before digging in—you'll want to enjoy it just right!

03 / EXTRA DETAILS

Cook's tip
