Equipment
- Mixing bowls (one medium, one small)
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Whisk or hand mixer
- Wooden spoon or spatula
- Baking sheets (ungreased)
- Fork (for flattening dough)
- Oven
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 4 ½ cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt ¾ cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2-3 cups chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) so it’s ready when the dough is prepared.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Stir until the mixture is evenly blended and crumbly.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the egg and vanilla extract. Pour this into the flour mixture and mix until a soft dough begins to form.
- Fold in the chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed. Scoop the dough in ½‑cup portions onto an ungreased baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie. Lightly press the tops with a fork to flatten. (You should get about 5 cookies per sheet.)
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look set. Allow the cookies to rest on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Let them cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
