Easy Chocolate Chip Cookies

October 19, 2010 By Lokness 3 Comments

Chewy chocolate chip cookie is a decent new thing to me. Back in Hong Kong, I have never had a chewy cookie. I always thought chocolate chip cookie was crunchy only. Until I came to the US, I realized there is something better out there. The best chocolate chip cookie is the chewy type! The soft center is so temptingly delicious. This recipe is so easy to do, and no special equipment is needed. I have made this many times, and this recipe never fails. Once you have tried this, you will never go back to the ready-to-bake fridge dough!

Easy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Course Dessert
Keyword baked, chocolate chip, cookie, edible gift, holidays

Ingredients

  • ½ cup plus ½ tablespoon unsalted butter
  • ¾ cup packed dark brown sugar
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1½ cup milk chocolate chips or semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Position the rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 375˚F.
  • Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone sheet.
  • Melt the butter in microwave until all melted. Cool slightly.
  • Whisk the sugars, eggs, butter and vanilla in a large bowl until smooth.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt.
  • Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients with a spatula. Make sure not to over mix. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Wet hands slightly. Scoop a heaped tablespoon of the dough onto one hand, and roll the dough into a ball. Put the dough on the baking sheet, and space the dough apart for about 2 inches.
  • Bake until slightly golden for 12 – 14 minutes. For a soft center, 12 minutes is enough. Transfer the cookies to a rack to cool. Serve and enjoy. (Before moving on to the second batch, make sure the baking sheet is cool off.)

Notes

  1. For storage, cool the cookies completely. Put them in a tightly sealed container. They can be store up to 5 days.

Yesterday was a good day, and I’m still feeling Yesterday was a good day, and I’m still feeling the hangover from it. To continue w/ the happy mood, I’m sharing a sunshine kind of recipe, Blood Orange Sorbet.🍊 Tart, little sweet & a hint of floral. This pink sorbet is crazy easy to make that you just whisk everything together & pour into the machine. Easy breezy!

Bryan & I have been dreaming about these chicken t Bryan & I have been dreaming about these chicken tenders from Sesame Grill @sesamegrill_626 for a few days. These tenders are unlike any we had before. Crunchy crust, yet delicate & not too heavy. The meat is super juicy & soft. Very simple food, but really well executed! Sesame Grill was original a fine dining restaurant, they redid their menu because of the pandemic & started to sell tenders only. And that got really popular! Incredible story & hope they’ll continue do well. If you’re ever in the area, definitely check them out.

Char Siu with Rice (叉燒飯) is a dish that I ca Char Siu with Rice (叉燒飯) is a dish that I can never get enough. Since I didn’t live close to a Chinese restaurant for a long time, I have been making my own for years. This week, I finally reshot the photos & gave a quick update for the recipe. Juicy & tender pork coated in a slightly sweet BBQ sauce, then top them over some hot steamed rice with a sweet soy sauce. Every bite is so satisfying!

Almost every year, I make holiday treats for famil Almost every year, I make holiday treats for families, friends & Bryan’s coworkers. (Except last year, because we just moved to Northern California.)🎁 Year after year, I was told that their favorites are the marshmallows! 
.
Homemade marshmallows are really something special. Soft & pillowy, and they’re usually less sweet & flavored. I have 3 flavored marshmallow recipes on the blog, chocolate, raspberry & orange. Chocolate is no doubt the most popular. If you prefer something fruity, raspberry is the one to go. If you’re looking for something unique, definitely try the orange. 
.
Don’t ask me to pick a favorite, because I do love them all. Another plus about marshmallows is that they last for at least 2 weeks (likely longer), so you have plenty of time to give them out to friends or finish them yourself!
