These crispy forgotten cookies feature a perfect balance of crispy edges and chewy centers with melty chocolate chips, making them an irresistible treat for baking fans.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ¼ cups (280g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (227g) unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup (165g) packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups (340g) chocolate chips (semi-sweet or bittersweet)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a separate large bowl, beat the softened butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then add vanilla extract and mix until combined.
  5. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips gently with a spatula.
  7. Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop dough balls about 2 inches apart on the baking sheets.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes. After baking, turn off the oven and leave the cookies inside for an additional 10-15 minutes to achieve the crispy edges.
  9. Remove baking sheets from the oven and transfer cookies to a cooling rack after 5 minutes. Let cool completely or enjoy warm.

Notes

Use room temperature butter (about 65°F/18°C) for best creaming results. The ‘forgotten’ step of leaving cookies in the turned-off oven for 10-15 minutes is key to achieving crispy edges. Chill dough for 30 minutes if cookies spread too much. Use high-quality chocolate chips for melty pockets. For extra crispy bottoms, bake on silicone mats instead of parchment paper.
