Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe 1/2 Cup Butter
Description
Chocolate chip cookies are classic and delicious. The combination of chocolate chips and butter creates a rich and flavorful cookie that everyone loves. This easy chocolate chip cookie recipe uses just 1/2 cup of butter and produces a batch of soft, chewy, and delicious cookies. With a few simple ingredients, you can whip up a batch of these cookies in no time.
Ingredients
For this recipe, you will need 1/2 cup of butter (at room temperature), 1/2 cup of white sugar, 1/2 cup of light brown sugar (packed), 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 1 & 1/4 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
Instructions
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugars together using either a hand mixer or a stand mixer. Once the mixture is light and fluffy, add in the egg and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until a dough forms. Fold in the chocolate chips and stir until evenly combined.
Using a cookie scoop, scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space in between each scoop. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes or until the edges of the cookies are lightly golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Equipment
For this recipe, you will need a large bowl for mixing, a hand mixer or stand mixer, a baking sheet, parchment paper, whisk, cookie scoop, and a wire rack.
Notes
It’s important to use room temperature butter when making these cookies, as this will help ensure that your cookies turn out soft and chewy. If you are using a stand mixer, make sure to use the paddle attachment and not the whisk attachment, as the whisk will incorporate too much air into the cookie dough.
