Small Batch Chocolate Chip Cookies
These cookies are soft, chewy, and full of flavor, making them the ultimate treat. And since it’s a small batch, you won’t be left with a mountain of cookies tempting you every day! Let’s gather our ingredients and get baking!
### Ingredients
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips (or more if you’re feeling indulgent!)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Stir until well mixed.
- Add in the vanilla extract, salt, and baking soda. Mix it up, and then slowly incorporate the flour until just combined.
- Fold in those delicious chocolate chips. You can add as many as your heart desires—don’t be shy!
- Using a cookie scoop or your hands, form small balls of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft. Remember, they’ll continue to cook a little after you take them out!
- Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. This is the hardest part—waiting for them to cool!
And there you have it! A perfect small batch of chocolate chip cookies to enjoy at your leisure. Whether it’s a snack, dessert, or just something to share with friends, these cookies are sure to bring a smile to everyone’s face. Happy baking, y’all!
