Easy Chocolate Chip Cookies
These Easy Chocolate Chip Cookies made with melted butter come together in minutes and make a perfect last minute treat!
Servings: 28 cookies
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- 12 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- 2 egg yolks
- 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Prepare a baking pan by lining with parchment or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon baking soda and ¼ teaspoon sea salt.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 12 tablespoons unsalted butter, ¾ cup brown sugar, 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup, 2 egg yolks and 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract until combined and smooth. Pour into dry mixture and mix until fully combined.
- Add 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and mix well to distribute.
- Using a 2 tablespoon cookie scoop, portion out dough balls and place about 2 to 2 ½ inches apart on the baking pan. Bake for 12-14 minutes or until they are puffed and the edges just begin to turn golden. (They bake for exactly 12 minutes in my oven for the perfect doneness.)
- Remove from oven and allow to cool for about 5-8 minutes, or until they've firmed up a bit. Carefully remove from baking pan and place on a cooling rack.
