Chocolate Chip Cookies Without Brown Sugar
Discover how to make delicious chocolate chip cookies without brown sugar. Enjoy soft, chewy cookies with simple ingredients and easy steps!
Ingredients
- 1 cup 200g white sugar: The star of this recipe, white sugar gives the cookies a lighter, crispier texture.
- 1/2 cup 115g unsalted butter, softened: This adds richness and ensures your cookies are perfectly moist.
- 1 large egg: Helps bind everything together for a cohesive dough.
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract: A must for enhancing flavor and giving your cookies that irresistible aroma.
- 1 1/2 cups 190g all-purpose flour: The base of your dough, providing structure to the cookies.
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda: Ensures your cookies rise just the right amount.
- 1/4 teaspoon salt: Balances the sweetness and highlights the flavors.
- 1 cup 175g chocolate chips: The best part! Use semi-sweet or milk chocolate for a gooey, chocolatey bite in every cookie.
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat Your Oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to keep the cookies from sticking.
Step 2: Cream the Butter and Sugar
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together softened butter and white sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. This step is crucial for getting that soft and chewy texture.
Step 3: Add Wet Ingredients
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture, and beat until fully combined. These ingredients give your cookies that delicious flavor and richness!
Step 4: Mix in the Dry Ingredients
- In a different bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined before adding them to the wet ingredients.
Step 5: Add the Chocolate Chips
- Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough. This is where the magic happens—those gooey chocolate chunks make each bite irresistible!
Step 6: Scoop the Dough
- Portion the dough using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, placing the dough balls about 2 inches apart on your baking sheet.
Step 7: Bake the Cookies
- Bake your cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden. The centers may look a bit soft—that’s totally normal! They’ll firm up as they cool.
Step 8: Cool and Enjoy
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Or, enjoy them warm for that perfect, gooey chocolate experience!
