Tips To Improve This Recipe
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes to prevent spreading while baking.
- Don’t overbake; remove the cookies when edges are golden but centers still look soft.
Step 1
In a large bowl, mix together the brown sugar, white sugar, and melted butter until everything is well combined.
Step 2
Crack in the egg (make sure it’s at room temperature) and beat the mixture for about 3-4 minutes until it’s smooth and a bit fluffy.
Step 3
Add the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir everything together until it forms a dough. Then fold in the chocolate chips.
Step 4
Scoop out small portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on a baking sheet, spaced apart. Pop the tray in the fridge for about 15 minutes to firm up the dough a bit.
Step 5
Preheat your oven to 170°C (340°F). After chilling, bake the cookies for 15-18 minutes until they're golden around the edges.
Step 6
Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before digging in.
Step 7
Enjoy your homemade chocolate chip cookies!
