Description

These fluffy cookies with chocolate chips are super easy to make because you can mix up the dough with a wooden spoon instead of an electric mixer.

Ingredients

1 cup butter
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

1 Melt butter with brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in white sugar, baking soda, and salt. Let mixture cool for 15 minutes.
2 Transfer butter mixture to a large mixing bowl. Add beaten eggs and vanilla extract; mix well. Fold in flour gently, 1 cup at a time, using a wooden spoon. Fold chocolate chips into the thick batter with the spoon.
3 Refrigerate cookie dough for 1 hour or freeze for 30 minutes.
4 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
5 Roll dough into 1-inch balls and arrange on ungreased, nonstick baking sheets.
6 Bake in the preheated oven until edges start to turn golden, 8 to 9 minutes. Let cool.
