Instructions
-
In a large bowl or stand mixer, combine the melted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix on low speed until smooth.
-
Add the egg and vanilla extract. Mix on medium speed until fully combined.
-
Stir in the baking soda and salt. Slowly add the flour and mix just until the batter is smooth and holds together. Scrape the sides of the bowl as needed.
-
Gently fold in the chocolate chips until distributed throughout the dough.
-
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Scoop 2-tablespoon balls of dough onto the sheet. It is okay if they are close together since they will be chilled.
-
Cover the dough balls with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a second cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
-
Remove the chilled dough balls from the refrigerator and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared sheet.
-
Bake for 11-15 minutes, or until the edges are light golden and the tops are no longer shiny.
-
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for at least 10 minutes before removing them.
Tips
Scoop the dough balls before chilling; spacing does not matter at this stage because the dough will firm up in the fridge.

About this recipe
These one-bowl cookies are designed to be soft and chewy, packed with plenty of chocolate chips. The dough is mixed with melted butter and sugars, then chilled for at least two hours to ensure the best texture. Baked until the edges are light golden, they offer a satisfying balance of sweetness and richness.
These cookies are best served after allowing them to cool on the baking sheet for about ten minutes. They are a delicious treat that works well for snacking or pairing with beverages.
