Description
Irresistibly soft and chewy chocolate chip cookies with a hint of vanilla and a sprinkle of sea salt.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

- Cream the butter and sugars together in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.

For a chewier cookie, chill the dough for an hour before baking. You can customize these cookies by adding nuts or using different types of chocolate.
