Two Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies
There are times when you just don’t need or want an entire batch of cookies. This simple one bowl recipe makes two perfect chocolate chip cookies with minimal cleanup.
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons Salted Butter, softened to room temperature
- 1 Tablespoon Granulated Sugar
- 2 Tablespoons Dark Brown Sugar, packed
- 1 Large Egg Yolk
- ¼ Teaspoon Baking Soda
- ⅛ Teaspoon Salt
- ¼ Teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
- ⅓ Cup All Purpose Flour
- ¼ Cup Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
Instructions
- Place the butter, sugars, egg yolk, baking soda, salt, and vanilla in a small bowl. Mix well for 30 seconds or until smooth and slightly fluffy. Fold in the flour until combined, and then fold in the chocolate chips.
- Divide the dough into two equal size balls {you can measure if you like but I always eyeball it}. Place the dough balls in the freezer while you preheat the oven, around 3-5 minutes.
- Bake the cookies at 375° for 11-13 minutes or until golden. Remove to a wire rack to cool completely. Cookies will fully set in the middle as they cool. If you do have leftovers, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to four days. Enjoy!
