Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe
These Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies are perfectly crunchy on the outside while still being soft and gooey on the inside. The only Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe you'll ever need.
Ingredients
- 1 Stick Butter
- 2/3 Cup Brown Sugar
- 1/3 Cup White Sugar
- 1 Egg
- 1 tsp Vanilla Essence
- 1 2/3 Cup Flour
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 7 oz Dark Chocolate chopped
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer or a large bowl add the butter, brown sugar and white sugar. Cream together the ingredients until light and fluffy - about 3 minutes.
- Add the egg and vanilla essence to the creamed butter and sugars and mix until well combined.
- Add the dry ingredients, the flour, baking soda and salt, to the mixing bowl and using a wooden spoon fold the cookie dough together until just incorporated.
- Fold through the chopped chocolate, scraping down the sides of the bowl until the cookie dough is evenly combined.
- For best results cover the bowl and place in the fridge overnight for the cookie dough to rest. If you don't have enough time you can make the cookies straight away.
- Roll about 2 tablespoons worth of dough into balls and place on a lined or greased baking sheet, giving the cookies about an inch of space around to spread. Optionally sprinkle the cookies with a small amount of flaky sea salt.
- Bake the cookies in a 190C | 375F oven for 7-10 minutes or until the edges begin to brown.
- Leave the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes
It's best to rest the dough for 24 hours before baking. This produces and richer and chewier cookie.
These cookies are best enjoyed the day of baking but they will stay fresh for 2-3 days in an airtight container.
Unused dough will store in the freezer for 2-3 months. Add a few minutes extra to the cooking time if baking from frozen.
