Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ Butter, unsalted, softened
  • cup Brown Sugar, light, packed
  • ¾ teaspoon Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1 Egg, large
  • 1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup Flour, all-purpose
  • 2 tablespoons Flour, all-purpose See recipe notes
  • 1 ½ cup Mini Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips 7 ounces

Instructions

  • Place the oven rack in the middle position
    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees
  • Line a baking sheet (or sheets) with parchment paper
  • PREPARE COOKIE DOUGH
  • Beat the butter and sugar in a medium sized bowl with an electric mixer, until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the salt and baking soda, egg and vanilla and continue mixing for another minute.
    Add in one cup of the flour and continue mixing just until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula.
  • Drop measured 1/2 teaspoons of dough, not rounded about 1 1/2 inches apart on the cookie sheet. See recipe notes to test the dough before baking.
    Bake in batches until golden brown on the edges, 6-7 minutes. Cool on wire racks.
    Makes about 12 dozen cookies that are roughly the size of a quarter.

Notes

  • Before you start baking all the cookies, try test baking a few cookies first to see how they turn out. If they look too flat, add 2 level tablespoons of flour to the dough and lightly work it in with your hands, then continue to shape and bake your cookies. You may not need it, but a little extra flour will solve cookies that are too flat.
