State Fair Chocolate Chip Cookies

  • Total time: 30 Minutes
  • Servings: 12 Large Cookies

Ingredients

  • 1/2 Cup Butter (softened not melted)
  • 1/4 Cup + 2 Tbsp White Sugar
  • 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 Whole Egg
  • Hearts Desire Vanilla
  • 1 1/2 Cups Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • Hearts Desire Chocolate Chips (mini is recommended)

Directions

  • 1)

    Preheat oven to 350°F.

  • 2)

    Mix butter and sugars until smooth.

  • 3)

    Add egg and vanilla and mix until fluffy.

  • 4)

    Mix together flour, baking soda and salt (you can mix the dry ingredients on top of the wet ingredients in the same bowl first to avoid dirtying another bowl). Incorporate with wet ingredients until flour is just absorbed— don’t over mix. A few unabsorbed spots of flour is okay.

  • 5)

    Add chocolate chips.

  • 6)

    Scoop into two inch balls packed tightly.

  • 7)

    Bake for 8-10 minutes. Take out when just getting golden on top, but middle will still be jiggly. Let them cool— this is the key to them cooling soft.
