My Current Favorite Chocolate Chip Cookie

Good Morning all,

Today I am going to be sharing with you all, my current favorite cookie recipe that I fell in love with from food network.  I say current because I LOVE chocolate chip cookies and I am always changing which one is my favorite. These particular chocolate chip cookies are chewy and thats just how I like them. These are great to make before you are having company over or if you are going to be bringing these over to a friend's or a family members house, because this recipe yields about 3 servings. If you're anything like me, having three servings of chewy chocolate chip cookies in your house is just a recipe for disaster (:

Lets get our hands chocolatey .......

Here is what you'll need:

2/3 cup (1 1/3 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup firmly-packed dark brown sugar

1 large egg, room temperature

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 3/4 cups sifted all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

One 6-ounce package semisweet chocolate chips... and if you're like me you can add a little more (;

Set your oven to 350 degrees and get your oven sheet ready, these pre cut parchment paper are perfect for your cookies and makes the clean up so much easier. 

Now you're ready to get those yummy cookies mixed up. With your electric mixer, mix together the egg, butter, granulated sugar, dark brown sugar, and Vanilla. You've completed mixing once your ingredients are smooth and creamy. 

Next, grab a medium sized bowl add your flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix all of these ingredients together. Once these are all combined, slowly add the dry ingredients to the ingredients in the electric mixture. While doing this, make sure it is all folded in nicely. When you have completely added the dry mixture from the medium bowl begin stirring in your chocolate chips. 

Now you're ready to place them on your cookie sheet. You can use an ice cream scooper to easily get the same shape for your cookies or you can use a spoon and then roll your dough into a ball shape. 

Once you have all your cookies on your baking sheet and your oven is pre-heated the cookies are ready to be put in the oven for that heavenly smell that makes everyone feel so warm inside. 

These are best when placed on a rack to cool and then stored in an air tight container.

Hope you enjoy these as much as I do!!!
