The Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe (Chewy, Gooey & Bakery-Style)
The Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe
There are few things in life as comforting as the smell of chocolate chip cookies baking in the oven. If you've ever dreamed of pulling a tray of bakery-style cookies out of your own kitchen — golden at the edges, soft and chewy in the middle, and loaded with melty chocolate — you're in the right place. This is the recipe I come back to again and again, and I'm so excited to share it with you. Whether you're baking for a cozy weekend treat or a party with friends, these cookies never disappoint.
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream the softened butter with both sugars until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 9–11 minutes, until the edges are golden but the centers still look slightly underdone.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Chef's Notes & Tips
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking — this deepens the flavor and prevents spreading.
- Pull the cookies out when the centers look just set; they'll continue cooking on the hot pan.
- For extra gooeyness, press a few chocolate chips on top right after baking.
- Use a kitchen scale for the flour (about 280g) to avoid dry, crumbly cookies.
I hope these cookies bring as much joy to your kitchen as they do to mine. Bake a batch, share them with someone you love, and don't forget to snap a photo of that perfect gooey center. Happy baking!
