Chocolate Chip Cookies- The Perfect Cookies each time!!

I have brought you the best chocolate chip cookies ever!! So simple to make which gives you perfect result each time you bake and it is exactly the same like the cafe one’s and is extremely delicious!!

Everyone should have one classic chocolate chip cookie recipe in their list and this is mine. My son bakes perfect cookies by following this recipe and it is liked by his and my daughter’s school friends.

The best part of these chocolate chip cookies is they don’t need to be refrigerated. But you can always refrigerate and bake after 1 hour or after a day and they will end up so perfect. You can freeze the cookie dough for months, then remove from freezer, thaw outside in the kitchen temperature by covering cookie dough with a light cloth or napkin.

Creaming the butter with brown sugar and white sugar is the most important step and the rest process is so simple. Use softened butter and room temperature eggs.

I normally prefer chocolate chunks over chocolate chips as they spread, melt more bits of chocolate and you get more chocolate in every bite. You can combine both dark chocolate and semi-sweet chocolate if you like.

Now let’s make these gooey, chocolatey chocolate chip cookies that are crispy on the edges and soft, chewy in the center❤

TIPS:

It’s always good to use unsalted butter for baking. But Iam used to salted butter from the time I reached Denmark. I use the same brand and I know the quantity of salt it has.
If you are not sure about this, use unsalted butter and add the quantity of salt mentioned in the ingredients.

You can freeze the cookie dough for months, then remove from freezer, thaw outside in the kitchen temperature by covering cookie dough with a light cloth or napkin.
