Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar, packed
- 0.25 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg yolk
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 0.125 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 pinch salt
- 2 tablespoons chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter. Let it cool slightly so it doesn’t scramble the egg yolk.
Step 3
Stir in the granulated sugar and brown sugar until fully combined.
Step 4
Mix in the vanilla extract and the egg yolk until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Step 5
Add the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Stir until a soft dough forms.
Step 6
Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Divide the dough into two equal portions and shape each one into a ball. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart.
Step 8
Gently press down on each ball of dough to slightly flatten it for even baking.
Step 9
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Avoid overbaking for soft, chewy cookies.
Step 10
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
