Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Beat butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
  • Mix in egg and vanilla.
  • Add flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix until just combined.
  • Fold in mini chocolate chips.
  • Chill dough for 30 minutes for thicker cookies.
  • Scoop teaspoon-sized balls onto the baking sheet.
  • Bake for 7–9 minutes, until edges are lightly golden and centers are still soft.
  • Cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.

Notes

Includes 30 minutes chill time. Don't overbake — cookies set as they cool. Store airtight at room temperature up to 5 days; dough balls freeze well.
