They should be sort of wet (almost done looking) when pulled out of the oven, let cool and enjoy a gooey soft cookie! 🍪

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Line three baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

In a medium bowl mix flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.

Cream together butter and sugars until combined.

Beat in eggs and vanilla until light (about 1 minute).

Mix in the dry ingredients until combined.

Add chocolate chips and mix well.

Chill dough!

Roll 2-3 Tablespoons (depending on how large you like your cookies) of dough at a time into balls and place them evenly spaced on your prepared cookie sheets.

Bake in preheated oven for approximately 8-10 minutes. Take them out when they are just barely starting to turn brown.

Let them sit on the baking pan for 5 minutes before removing to cooling rack.

    Yup! Been making these for years. Best recipe out there. Even better than Sally’s.

  2. PrairieRos

    Replacing Grandma’s recipe is certainly bold, but I admire it. It looks authentic, and the recipe details are very helpful. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

  3. Salt-Rutabaga-4464

    This is my go to recipe for chocolate chip cookies as well and I’ve tried quite a few recipes I must say. Definitely recommend this one! Very simple too which is nice!

  4. penumbra_rising

    Commenting to save the recipe for later. These look so good!

  5. TheVampyresBride

    This is my favorite recipe and the only one I use nowadays. Thank you for bringing attention to it.

  6. Fuzzy_Welcome8348

    Looks fantastic!! I’ll take one!

  7. robinsparkles220

    How long do you chill the dough for?

  8. lello24242

    I could recognize that recipe anywhere, that’s my FAVORITE chocky chip recipe

  9. paigeken2000

    I came to fight you on this and list what is TRULY the best cookie recipe, then I saw your link and…it’s the same one. Great minds!!

  10. LindaBurgers

    I make this all the time, it’s the best! I keep with the recipe and don’t even chill the dough. I chopped up three bars of Ghirardelli bittersweet bars last time instead of chocolate chips and used vanilla paste. They were amazing

  11. marrymeodell

    I alternate between this recipe and Handle the Heats recipe !

  12. rosesandlemons4

    I’ve been using this for years- seriously the best!

  13. PotatoHighlander

    I’ve made a similar recipe for some time, the only change I make is I brown the butter before adding it to the recipe, and then have a scoop for doing large number quickly. I also chill the dough for at least 24 hours before baking.

    I’ll trust you, internet stranger, and will try these for our Christmas Eve cookies. But I’ll replace some of the chocolate chips with holiday M&M’s per my 5yo’s request.

  15. cassielovesderby

    These look great!

    I will say, and this is just a personal preference, I think multiple cups of chocolate chips is insane. Like, I do not want my cookie to be 70% chocolate chips. I always do less any time I make a recipe because every time I use the recipe amount it’s waaaay too much.

  16. sweetmojaveraiin

    Very similar recipe to the one I use from my mother’s old ass BH&G cookbook!

  17. twentyfourunicorn

    how do these compare to brown butter chocolate chip cookies??? bc tbh im so faithful to my brown butter recipe but.. could these be better?? is brown butter not necessary? 🤔🤔

  18. Hopeful_Pizza_2762

    I bake mine at 325. I dont like them browned.

  19. ADHDGardener

    I literally found and made these a couple of days ago and I agree!! They are amazing!!!

  20. GARRWYN

    Can someone convert the cups to grams 🙂

  21. Odd-Mastodon1212

    These look great. I like this, but do half a cup of each sugar and add almond extract to the vanilla.

  22. Benjikrafter

    Half brown sugar and half white sugar is amazing for that kind of gooey cookie!

  23. temp3rrorary

    I made these last year for my cookie box and loved them. With the right chocolate they were divine. I used the Sally’s brown butter cookie this year and wasn’t as impressed (but barely, they’re both very very tasty.)

  24. Excellent-Alfalfa770

    Do you know if this would work with 1:1 gluten free flour? I am celiac and envy all of the pictures in here but this one I could make I think!

  25. Important-Mouse6813

    Has anyone tried to make these with glutenfree flour?

  26. frogz0r

    This is my family’s recipe for chocolate chip cookies lol

    We’ve made them this way since my mom was little. (She was born in 1947)

    They are very good and IMHO the best.

  27. Technical-Bunch-4239

    Anybody have a clue about what to do at altitude? 😖 Coloradan here struggling with using recipes as-is

  28. Rude_Routine_4346

    the recipe doesnt say to chill the dough, is it necessary or no?

  29. Quinfluenza

    How do they hold up to serious eats brown butter chocolate chip cookies? Those are the best I’ve ever had

  30. Periodicallyinnit

    Looks amazing but I’ll be real I’m suspicious of any recipe that doesn’t brown the butter and claims to be the best!

    Can’t wait to give it a try and see though! The best part about trying new cookie recipes is that either way I get cookies 😊

  31. win093030

    I like a softer cookie, so I always do more brown sugar than white. So for this one, I’d do 1.5 cups brown and .5 cups white!

  32. deer_career

    THIS!! Absolutely adore this recipe. I’ll brown the butter sometimes and add a very small dash of cinnamon. Truly, the best cookies. I make my dough, rest for 24hrs, then scoop and freeze.

  33. Melancholy-4321

    I always scoop then chill or freeze so I’m not trying to roll cold dough 😌

    This is almost the same as my go-to recipe (mines a little more brown sugar and a little less flour)

  34. Mochadeoca6192

    I use this too and they are the best! I’m not a great baker but these come out perfect

  35. Psychological-Heat89

    Sorry but https://share.google/Z8sZhmBcfX6hROkey using only egg yolks is the way for me… With a little pan drop about 9 mins in … Leaves them crispy on the outside (not just the edges but all of it) and soft and chewy in the middle. Maybe if you don’t like the crispy or prefer a more cakey cookie …. But egg yolks only will turn any cakey cookie into a dense chewy one which is what I’ve gathered most people prefer. And dropping the pan will help settle the center and crispen the outside. I’ll bet if I made this recipe you shared with only egg yolks I could get on board!

  36. Net-Administrative

    I already agree except I would brown the butter, LOVE browned butter flavour omg

  37. Yes! I’ve been using that same recipe for years. I swap out half of the chocolate chips for dark chocolate so they come out a little less sweet. Delicious!

  38. shadeofmyheart

    Isn’t this the toll house recipe tho? What makes this different?

  39. msjammies73

    Curious if you’ve ever compared this to the Torres NY Times recipe? That’s my standard, but I wouldn’t mind trying something new.

  40. Haunting-Formal-1290

    Just wanted to share that I made the cookies right after reading this post and they are the best cookies I’ve ever had. They turned out so beefy too which I love. 100000/10

  41. spankthegoodgirl

    No browned butter? Hmm. Have you tried them with browned butter?
