The BEST Chocolate Chip Cookies
I have been deeply invested in creating the best chocolate chip cookie recipe for over 6 YEARS. And i’m thrilled to say, it is *finally* absolute perfection. These are the best homemade chocolate chip cookies, period. Here’s what makes them so great:
- They will work EVERY SINGLE TIME you bake them. There are no failed attempts here. If you follow this recipe, you can guarantee you will be eating on of the best cookies of your life in a matter of minutes.
- The flavor does NOT quit. And I’ll tell you the secret reason why. These cookies are vanilla-forward. So much so that you might think there is a typo in the recipe. It’s not a typo – the vanilla really pulls out all of the flavor of the brown sugar, butter, egg, chocolate chips, etc and makes these the best chocolate chip cookies.
- They will stay soft and chewy! IMO, these have the best texture of any chocolate chip cookie ever and they will still have that texture the next day. These won’t turn into dry bricks and disappointment when they cool.
- This recipe makes the perfect amount. You’ll end up with a lot of cookies, but not too much. It’s a win-win.
- Finally, they freeze exquisitely well (both baked and as dough!) Which means you can essentially have an instant delightful cookie whenever the fancy strikes. Which, trust me, once you eat these homemade chocolate chip cookies will be all the time.
Best Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe Ingredients
- Salted butter, softened – I use salted butter, if using unsalted butter add an extra pinch or two of salt to the cookie dough.
- Granulated sugar
- Brown sugar
- Egg
- Vanilla extract – No, that isn’t a typo for the vanilla. These are a vanilla forward cookie and it makes them my FAVORITE ever.
- All-purpose flour – Just regular all-purpose flour works great
- Baking soda
- Salt
- Favorite chocolate chips – Use whatever chocolate chips are your favorite or what you have on hand. You can even chop up a chocolate bar and use it in this recipe. I like ghirardelli chocolate chips for these!
Best flour for Chocolate Chip Cookies
I have tweaked this recipe for YEARS and in reality, simple all-purpose flour works perfectly here.
How to make the Best Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Preheat the oven to 350° F.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer or with an electric hand mixer, cream together the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar until light in color and fluffy in texture. This will take about 2 minutes.
- Scrape the sides of the bowl and add in the egg and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- Add in the flour, baking soda and salt. Mix until a soft but not sticky dough forms.
- Fold in your favorite chocolate chips.
- Scoop the dough out into 1 1/2 tbsp portions (a #40 cookie scoop works great here) and arrange on your cookie sheet. Can use parchment paper, a silicone mat or an ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake at 350° F for 8-10 minutes or until the cookies have spread and are just beginning to turn golden brown on the edges.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack.
Best temp to bake Chocolate Chip Cookies
This recipe uses the typical 350° F – this will allow the cookies to spread just slightly but won’t melt the butter too quickly, which would make them thin and crunchy instead of the soft & chewy we’re going for.
How long to bake Chocolate Chip Cookies
Bake these cookies for 8-10 minutes or until the cookies have spread and are just beginning to turn golden brown at the edges. If we’re being honest, I swear by baking them for 9 minutes and 30 seconds – but that just feels fussy to write in the recipe.
Variations on the Best Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe
I love these as straight-up chocolate chip cookies, but there is no reason you can’t get fancy with them! Feel free to add in a mix of chocolate types, chopped nuts, or whatever you please.
How to store Chocolate Chip Cookies
Once cooled, store your cookies in an airtight container on the counter for 3-5 days!
Can you freeze chocolate chip cookies?
Yes! These chocolate chip cookies freeze really well and can be stored in a resealable freezer bag for up to 3 months.
How to freeze Chocolate Chip Cookies
I have a post all about how to freeze cookies, but here’s the basics: let your cookies cool completely and then seal in a freezer bag, careful to omit as much air as possible. Label the bag with the type of cookie and date it. Pop in the freezer and use within 3 months!
Can you freeze Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough?
Oh, absolutely! I recommend freezing the dough after it has been shaped into balls. For my trademark tips, check out this post on how to freeze cookie dough! But here’s the gist:
Shape the dough into balls and place on a baking sheet. Put the baking sheet in the freezer for about an hour, or until the dough balls are firm. Transfer the frozen dough balls to an airtight container or resealable plastic bag. Voila! They’re ready to freeze for up to 3 months.
How long do Chocolate Chip Cookies last?
If eating freshly baked, consume within 3 days for the ultimate experience! If you’re choosing to freeze your cookies, they will last for up to 3 months.
Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies FAQs
My first guess is that your baking soda is old! Check the date on it and make sure it hasn’t expired. The longer your baking soda is open, the less effective at giving a rise it will be!
The best part about these chocolate chip cookie recipe is that it is engineered to yield soft cookies – so science is on your side! Beyond that, make sure that you aren’t overmixing your dough and that you aren’t overbaking them!
Making this chocolate chip cookie recipe! Seriously – I have spent SIX YEARS perfecting this recipe and it works every time! If you’re looking for the best cookies, you’ve found them.
I try really hard to give you recipes that don’t need to be chilled before baking – because who has time for that? You do not need to chill this chocolate chip cookie dough prior to baking (and they turn out perfectly!)
I like to use a cookie scoop to make sure all of my cookies are the same size and will bake evenly. I love the shape a cookie scoop gives my cookies, so I usually don’t flatten them. But you definitely can if you’d like!
This may sound counter-intuitive, but make sure you don’t overmix your cookies! This will make sure your dough doesn’t become tough – allowing the rising agent to do its job and yield a fluffy cookie.
Yes! You can. If that’s what you’re looking for, I would recommend giving this recipe a try: chocolate chip cookies without brown sugar.
Yes, but you will still want to make sure that there is a rising agent in dough to give your cookies a nice, fluffy, chewy texture. I have a post all about baking soda substitutes that you might be interested in checking out.

How much brown sugar should we add? Thanks! Love your recipes, Karli!
Thanks for the catch! Use a 1/2 cup of brown sugar in these.
is it packed brown sugar or just measured
She’s so right, best chocolate cookie recipe! Love the extra vanilla. This recipe is perfection!
Perfection!!
Came out perfect! Wonderful recipe!
Perfect Cookies, cant get any better than this.
I just made 4 dozen of these (two batches for me made 4 dozen) for a party and they’re perfection. Crispy edge with chewy soft middle. And the recipe was very easy to follow. Will definitely be making these again!
Best chocolate chips recipe I’ve ever had! Turned out picture perfect and although I was a little hesitant on the extra vanilla, it was delicious!
They do taste great, but mine still went flat. Not as fluffy looking as yours.
Perfect recipe! But – how are you getting only 47kcal per cookie? My estimate is closer to 140. Am I mathing wrong?? 🙂
I couldn’t find how much I needed to use so I did mckormik’s cookie recipe with 2 full bags of chocolate chips and my parents said they were perfect so check that out. Btw I am a little 9 year old girl trying to bake so thanks.
Made these today and they are fantastic! Love the extra vanilla and that the dough doesn’t need to be chilled. The #40 scoop makes the perfect sized cookie, in my opinion. Thank you so much for sharing!
These chocolate chip cookies are by far the BEST you will ever have! I make these every holiday by request. They come out amazing every…single… time. I don’t measure the chocolate and add walnuts to some for the nut lovers haha. Highly recommend!!
These are awesome! I don’t usually like Chocolate Chip Cookies but these are to die for…
The family LOVED these cookies! Great recipe, will make these again!
Extremely picky with baking recipes. I have spit out baked goods from some of the most famous bakeries on my state. This is BY far the best chocolate chip cookie recipe I’ve tried in all my 10 years of baking! I used a #50 scoop though, because a #40 is 2 tbps, not 1.5, and I dodnt want to end up with less than 30 cookies. A #50 is approx 1.2 tbps, and gave me 37 cookies. I also added a handful of rainbow sprinkles for some extra pretty! This will now be my go-to chocolate chip recipe.
These were awesome, we really enjoyed them!
AMAZING recipe! This is now our go-to chocolate chip cookie recipe! Comes out perfect every time and they’re usually all gone within 24 hours! Highly recommend!
These were awesome. I usually have trouble with chocolate chip cookies. I did weigh the flour. How do you measure your flour? Sifted, fluffed or just scooped?
What does a cup of flour weigh when you measure it your regular way?
Everyone says they’re the best cookies ever! My neighbor asked for the recipe right away! I’m going to try making them gluten free for me.
I know I am in the minority here, but these cookies are both too sweet and too salty for me. I will say my husband loved them, but even he noticed the salt, which he of course liked. Using both salted butter and added salt seemed like too much salt to me but I wanted to make the recipe as written to give it a fair try. He said, “I’m probably never going to get these cookies again, right?” Right. Both my adult son and I thought they were cloyingly sweet (actually “cloyingly” was my word not his but he agreed), though my son will eat more of them because, yeah they are homemade cookies. Since the amount of regular and brown sugar in the recipe isn’t much at all (actually less than in the chocolate chip cookie recipe I normally make), I am assuming that the sweetness is somehow created by the vanilla. I will also say that the texture is nice. Not sure yet how long they will stay soft because I just made them. I am sure most people making this recipe will really like it, it just doesn’t do it for me.
My search is over!! FINALLY after trying a dozen chocolate chip cookie recipes this is hands down my favorite. I did end up substituting 1 tablespoon baking powder since I was out of baking soda, but I’m sure it won’t make much of a difference. I’ll be doubling and tripling this recipe in the future and it will be my new go-to!
These were great!
I need to know if it is packed brown sugar or just measured
love this recipe. thank you
I love them so much! Their chewy and they have a great texture 😋
I made these for my family and employees! They loved them! The extra vanilla is such a brilliant idea. I appreciate that I did lot need to refrigerate them before baking. I know times vary for baking but I found 11mins to be the perfect baking time. Soft in the middle with a bit of a light crunch around the outside of the cookie. This will be my go to recipe.
I’ve made these cookies probably a hundred times and always get asked for more! These cookies are fantastic, easy to make, and a true favorite for all my friends and family! No matter what holiday is coming up, the first question I’m always asked is “can you bake those amazing cookies!” I have made this recipe so much that I’ve memorized it by heart and is sure to be one I pass down to my future kids!
This recipe is quick and easy to follow and makes the most delicious chocolate chip cookies, they are a fan favorite every time I make them.
My husband and I have made this recipe multiple times and they are perfect every single time. This one, Karli’s other chocolate chip recipe with the corn syrup and the chipless chocolate chip cookies are my faves.
I love these cookies so much! I’ve made them probably 100 times by now and no matter how many I make, I’m always asked for more! These cookies are fantastic, easy to make, and family approved! Each holiday I’m asked “can you bring those amazing cookies!” I’ve made them so much that I’ve memorized the recipe! This is definitely a recipe I’m going to pass down to my future kids!
Love this recipe! Made a triple batch and froze the extra cookie dough so we can enjoy later!!
My kids love making these. They are easy and delicious!! A family favorite.

After trying so many different recipes, these chocolate chip cookies have become my go-to. They’re so easy to make and always a crowd-favorite! I was iffy about the 1 tbsp of vanilla, but I think that’s this recipe’s secret weapon!
Saw this recipe today and just HAD to try! I’ve made my share of chocolate chip cookies and these are amazing! Hard to be a good and simple cookie 😍
I love making cookies, but these are by far my favorite!
This recipe is definitely the best recipe for Chocolate Chip cookies!! Everyone loves them , and I get many requests for them.
So easy and so delicious!
To quote you, Karli… this chocolate chip cookie recipe is spot on every time. I have a photo to share, but I don’t see where I can attach that. Thanks for the six years you put into perfecting this.
Literally the best chocolate chip cookies. Perfectly soft, and stayed that way for a couple days …. Can’t vouch for any longer than that because they got eaten FAST. Thanks, Karli!!
Definitely the best recipe for a chocolate chip cookie!! So easy and so delicious!
I have made these cookies a few times and they always turn out so good! A family favorite for sure! Even a double batch doesn’t last long in this house!

This is the only chocolate chip recipe I will ever make again! Everyone I have made them for has said they taste heavenly, and I have to agree. They are perfect!
Hands down the best chocolate chip cookies.
My new go-to chocolate chip cookie recipe and my family is hooked! Crispy edges, with a soft, chewy center, what’s not to love?
I have always always had a hard time making chocolate chip cookies. They always would spread and come out super flat. This recipe is amazing and bonus points for a no chill dough!
I have never gotten more compliments on a chocolate chip cookie before! So delicious!!
We love these cookies so much! My daughter and I are gluten-free, and we had neighbors over yesterday who also have a gluten-free member of the family. We made these using Bob’s Red Mill one-to-one gluten-free flour and they came out perfect! I love how easy they are to make and how vanilla-ey they are! I think next time I will add in a chopped up chocolate bar to increase the chocolate. Thank you for the amazing recipe!
Made this recipe and loved it! My whole family enjoyed!
Absolutely delicious! You have amazing recipes!
This is my only go to chocolate chip cookie recipe now!! So simple and fast and most important delicious! Also great recipe to start the little ones on, they can practically do it for themselves. Gave this recipe to my 12 yo niece and she bakes it all the time! Xoxox
My husband makes these really great, giant chocolate chip cookies. He had a 15 hour shift at work yesterday, so I made these for my daughter and me. She said they were the best cookies she’s ever had, even better than dad’s. We won’t tell him, but we’ll be making these again. 😉
Best ever chocolate chip cookie recipe.my family and friends scarfed them down within hours. Your recipes never disappoint ❤️
Love all your recipes. These are so good!!! Always a hit when I make them.
Quick to whip up easy to freeze and the 9 min 30 sec was the perfect time to bake these cookies !
Family favorite!
I love this chocolate chip cookie recipe because I already had all the ingredients in my pantry. The results were phenomenal! This is my new go to chocolate chip cookie recipe! Thanks so much for sharing.
This recipe is really simple but delicious! I make it all the time! 🍪 😜
Yummy cookies! Love the extra vanilla flavor. I like cookies a little saltier so I added 3/4 tsp salt instead of 1/2.
YUM! These were delicious! Definitely a keeper!
so yummy
Fast and easy to make! I make chocolate chip cookies a lot and these ones are really good! I used semi sweet chocolate chips. It made about 36 cookies.
These cookies were good! The cookie dough is amazing and they are very easy to make. I feel like the recipe is missing something though. I didn’t get a WOW factor.
These are the perfect blend of brown and white sugar and a great amount of vanilla. They were a big hit and I printed the recipe and put it in my binder already.
The most perfect texture in a cookie! My husband (who is not a dessert person) gobbled them up, so you know they’re good.
I have made many recipes from Karli, and she never disappoints!
Tasty cookie recipe! They did end up pretty thin for me, probably the flour wasn’t measured correctly. It’s always hard to measure flour with cups rather than grams though! I stuffed them with ice cream and they were perfect!
These were delicious! I did add a scoop of vanilla protein powder and less flour too and they were sooooo fluffy! Great go to recipe!
These are so good! I recommend!
These cookies turned out perfect and I’m extremely picky when it comes to chocolate chip cookies! Even better, they’re super easy to make! Very few ingredients, no dough chilling and no extra bowls to mix the dry ingredients separately. When I want cookies, I want them now and these delivered! I’ll definitely be making this recipe again and again!
This cookies were good! The dough was amazing and they were really easy to make. I did feel like they were missing the “WOW” factor though.
These were so light and airy! Absolutely perfect chocolate chip cookies. The only problem is I could eat them all in a day!! 🤤
These are so light and airy! Absolutely perfect chocolate chip cookies. The only problem is I could eat them all in one day!! 🤤
Love how simple and straightforward this recipe is!!
Easy enough to let my 4 year old twins help!
By far the best recipe EVER!! I have made these several times and they come out perfect each time. I also followed the instructions for freezing them, so when i want one of Karli’s cookies i can just pull 3-4 out of the freezer and Enjoy them within minutes. I use to use the recipe on the back of the chocolate chip bag, but Never again!! I will forever use this recipe! simply put Karli is a GENIUS!!
These cookies are a classic! They check so many boxes ; flavor , texture, childhood bliss!! Make these for someone you love . I love that there is a generous amount of vanilla and salted butter is called for ! Delish!
YES!!! These are the best chocolate chip cookie. They turned out beautifully the first time I made them and they were devoured by my family within a day. To quote my husband “these are delicious!” Make them, share them, or eat them all. It’s worth every bite!
Great recipe! Loved the extra vanilla and that you don’t need to chill. Will definitely be making again!
Delicious! 5 stars – easy to follow recipe, melt in your mouth, soft and gooey cookie perfection!!
Wow! These cookies turned out so good! I would 10/10 recommend this recipe ❤️
Quick and easy to make!
My new go to for chocolate chip cookies!

So good! Crispy edges and soft center makes for a delicious cookie. I saved half the batch for freezing and they are just as good!
my family loves this recipe we make it all the time we love how soft and yummy it is
Taste was good, mine were flat.
For the last year I have been on the search for the best chocolate chip cookie recipe. I tried so many but stopped once I made these. They were everything I was looking for. Chewy/doughy but they didn’t go flat as a pancake in the oven. They stored great. (Even the dough tasted great 🙈) I’ve made them for multiple functions and have been asked for the recipe when I do. Thank you!!!
These are a solid recipe when you don’t have time to chill the dough. Karli has some amazing recipes, but this one is just okay for me.
Yum! I made these today. I love a classic chocolate chip cookie! And yes, use that whole tablespoon of vanilla! Next time I’ll double the recipe.
Who doesn’t love a chocolate chip cookie? These were easy to make and came out delicious. I look forward to making them whenever I need a cookie fix fast. Yum!
These are the easiest and tastiest cookies to make. I made them with very little effort. I love that they don’t require too many ingredients. These were a big hit. I love all of Karli’s recipes
I have tried so many chocolate chip cookie recipes. This one is by far the best and the simplest! My family loves them!
Super easy to make and turned out delicious! Soft and chewy
I love this! So easy to make and always turn out great! I can’t stop going back for more!
This is the 1st chocolate chip recipe that I don’t need to add extra flour so they don’t flatten too much. These were amazing!
Love the texture of these!

Love this recipe. I make them at least 1x a week. My family & friends always ask for them.
These are the best chocolate chip cookies I’ve ever made. I like how they are a tad saltier than your typical recipe.
Loved this recipe! I used dark brown sugar, because it’s all I had, but they were incredible! The perfect amount of salty sweetness. Added some colorful sprinkles to the dough to add in a pop of color!
These cookies are the best and the easiest to make. Always a fan favorite every time i make them
I’ve made this recipe multiple times, it really is fool proof! I used to stand by a certain recipe on the back of a chocolate chip bag, but it was hit or miss if they’d turn out good no matter how particular I was with measuring and mixing. This one is always perfect! I send the cookies to work with my fiancé and he says they’re all gone within an hour! Thanks Karli for saving my chocolate chip cookie game!
These truly are the perfect chocolate chip cookie! I used to stand by a recipe on the bag of a certain chocolate chip brand, but they were hit or miss no matter how particular I was about measuring and mixing. These ones are fool proof. I send them to work with my fiancé and he says they’re always all gone within the hour. Thanks Karli for saving my chocolate chip cookie game!
Made these and can confirm they are the BEST chocolate chip cookies!
I’m always down to make a new chocolate chip cookie recipe! I’ve tried so many over the past few years. I like that I didn’t need to chill the dough for this recipe and I was able to bake it right away! The texture was nice I just need to switch up the kind of chips I use next time. Thank you!:)
These are the PERFECT chewy chocolate chip cookie. I don’t trust anyone that prefers a crunchy cookie. 👀 They’re super easy to throw together. I made a double batch to freeze for later and I’m glad I did!
Pure Deliciousness! I have been making these weekly for a few months now. They turn out soft and perfect every time. I use these cookies to bribe my kids to extra chores. It works every time!
Pure deliciousness! I have been making these cookies weekly for a few months now and we love them! I also use them to bribe my kids into doing extra chores and it works every time. They are happy and mommas happy it’s a win all around!
Awesome recipe! Tastes great and the best part is no chilling required.. with a teenager in house who wants treats on a very short notice.. I am so relieved I have found this recipe which can be whipped in a matter of minutes!
our GO TO cookie. always get compliments when i take them to gathers.
Made these for my son and husband and they LOVED them!! Will have to make another batch soon because I was barely able to eat some for myself but will be our go-to recipe from here on out! Soo yummy!
Made these for my son and husband and they LOVED them!! will definitely be my go-to recipe and no longer buy store bought cookies. will have to make another batch bc these are SO YUMMY!!
These cookies are amazing….I make these cookies at least twice a month! Easy delicious recipe! 🍪
These were a hit for my family! I have tried many other chocolate chip recipes and they have come out cakier or the flavor was off. I loved the chewy texture and the slight saltiness deepened the sweet flavor for me. I had to make another batch to freeze for easy access.
Five stars!!! My new FAVORITE chocolate chip cookie recipe. Taste and texture is spot-on!! Hubby and kids love them too!!
Thanks Karli! 👏🏽❤️
Love this recipe! Perfect chocolate chip cookies! These will be gone in no time around our house!
I absolutely LOVED these cookies. I also gave my twins one (their first ever chocolate chip cookies) and they really enjoyed it!! Now I have all these frozen cookies that probably won’t last three months in my freezer lol!!
These cookies were unlike any other! LIGHT in color, super soft & airy, perfectly crisp on the outside and light & fluffy on the insides. My family LOVED them!
These were soo easy to make! I loved them and that it didn’t take too long to do. Every time I make them they’re eaten within days, always a big hit! Deliciously soft and chewy :)) thanks!
Vanilla and garlic are two things in the kitchen that should be measured with the heart. These vanilla packed cookies did not disappoint! We used dark chocolate chunks, mini milk, regular size semi sweet and white chocolate! These are perfect- I went with 9:30 for a cook time and they were perfect!
Such a yummy recipe!! I love how you don’t have to chill the dough so it goes to counter to oven to mouth fairly quick! 😂 Keep up the amazing work!!
Your search for the perfect chocolate chip cookie recipe is OVER! I was honestly just trying this for the giveaway haha BUT I was so impressed by these. The texture is wonderful; slightly crisp and golden on the outside and tender and chewy on the inside. The ratio of dough to chips is also perfect, with a beautiful vanilla flavor. Not only delicious, but so stinkin’ easy. Go make them!
These are delicious. My kiddos made them for the challenge and we were not disappointed. We added dark chocolate chips, as well. Will be a repeat recipe for us!
I love all of your cookie recipes. We made these tonight and they are delicious. I am celiac so I make them gluten free with King Arthur flour. Very yummy. My husband love them as well as everyone I share with. Only problem I had with this one was they went flat so I’m guessing I did something different without knowing it. Will try again as flavor is perfect. Thank You!!
This cookie recipe has NEVER failed me. So thankful I found Karli’s recipes because everyone raves about my cookies now. I am always so excited to try a new recipe of hers because 10/10 times, they always turn out perfect!!!!
10/10 recipe every single time. Karli’s cookies never disappoint the crowd and I’m so thankful I found her recipes!
These are one of my boys favorite cookies, and the recipe is super easy to follow
All of my 4 kids and I love it! You can tell the difference from any other chocolate cookie recipe. The extra vanilla and the buttery crispness is perfection! I’ve tried dozens of chocolate chip cookies and this one is definitely a keeper.
I’ve been making these for so long. My daughter even took it to school for her birthday. She has taken them to picnics and parties! Thank u so much for this recipe. I saw the challenge and jsut had to respond asap. I can even send pics if u like…. Love, maryam
My kids and I made these chocolate chip cookies and we loved them! The recipe is close to my go to recipe that I have used for 10+ years. I want to make both and compare side by side as a fun experiment with the kids to see what makes cookies look/taste different. This recipe is definitely going in my recipe box though – yum!
Cookies are nice and soft. Recipe comes together really quickly…no refrigeration time. Vanilla flavor was a little strong/overpowering for my family.
These cookies are the BEST! So fun to make with my daughter and seriously delicious. The extra vanilla is a game changer.
These are the best chocolate chip cookies. One of my son-in-laws, who is a chef, doesn’t care for desserts, & he says these are the best cookies ever.
Thank you for working to create the best recipes.
These cookies are the best & I always receive compliments. One of my sons-in-law, who is a chef but doesn’t care for desserts, says these are awesome.
Thank you for creating & sharing your amazing recipes.
These are delicious and easy to bake a batch in no time!
it was time to restock our freezer and I decided it was a good time to start something new! They are delicious and only flattened a little bit after cooling. I did 8 at a time to see if that helped, which it seemed to a little bit.
My family and coworkers devoured these cookies. This will definitely be my go to chocolate chip recipe from now on. All of your recipes are delicious and so easy to follow.
My family and coworkers devoured these cookies. This will definitely be my go to recipe from more on. All of your recipes are delicious and so easy to follow. 🍪
I have done many cookie recipes from Karli’s tik tok channel and this one and the rockstar are my favorite cookies ever!!! I was afraid of the dough making process because it looked like it would be cakey but no they baked up nicely. I only was able to eat up half the dough recipe and put the rest in the freezer like her instructions said! So happy with this recipe! I’m gonna have to throw away my memorized recipe of tollhouse and put this one in the memory bank!!!
Saw this recipe yesterday & made them today! I like to think cookies are my baking specialty, and this is hands down the best recipe I’ve followed! Veryyyy yummy!
I loved how simple these cookies were to make. My family wanted a chocolate chip cookie fix this afternoon and these were quick to make.
I loved how simple these cookies were to make. my family needed a chocolate chip cookie fix and these were super quick to make.
They were fantastic. The recipe was easy enough that my 13 year old made them on her own. We had one pan and she froze the rest of the dough because we like them fresh out of the oven for dessert. We all likes that they were soft and doughy, our preferred cookie texture.
These are for sure one of the top chocolate chip cookies I’ve made. And I have made A LOT! I followed the recipe exactly and had perfect results! Only thing I did was add extra chocolate chips on the tops for a nice finish when they came out of the oven. 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Just made these cookies and they are soo yummy and so easy to make!
Just made these cookies and they are delicious and so easy to make!
Great recipe! The extra vanilla made them smell and taste great!
I have to agree that this recipe is amazing! I was very excited to try these and see what my husband thought. He is what I would call a cookie snob and has no problem telling me his thoughts. I try new recipes often or improve on my tried-and-true ones to see what I can do with them. When he tried these, he LOVED them and couldn’t believe the taste. We both agreed that the dough part had an amazing taste, where as some chocolate chip doughs are very bland. I choose to use mini chips when making my cookies and worried that maybe I should have scaled back on the amount, but I kept it to a cup and the ratio of dough to cookie was perfect. I will be replacing my current recipe for this one. I doubled the batch so I could share with our neighbor!! Thank you so much for this recipe!!
Great recipe! The extra vanilla made them smell and taste great!
These cookies were great! I have made and loved several of your other (fancier) cookie recipes, and I decided to try this classic chocolate chip cookie recipe. They were simple to make and totally delicious. The extra vanilla was awesome!
I always tell my friends that Cooking With Karli recipes don’t miss and this one is no different. These cookies are delicious and everyone loves them!
Really good recipe! I’ve been testing lots of chocolate chip cookie recipes from the internet and this is top 5 for sure! I’m going to try the recipe again with a tad more flour and see if I can get a chewier cookie. I think the taste is perfect!
Made these for my family and they were a huge it. I will definitely be making again.
Thank you for the great recipe.
Cookies have a great perfect taste. they did turn out flatter which i used the jar hack once they came out of the oven. i used grams instead of cups. maybe this was why. didn’t come out like picture but taste is good!
Everyone loved them in my family! They were thinner than expected but will definitely make them again
Such a wonderful, quick and easy recipe for those times you don’t want to wait to chill your dough The cookies taste so yummy!
Absolutely delicious! Perfect taste, perfect size, excellent!
Delicious! Easy to follow recipe. Great taste. Perfectly sized. Yum, betcha can’t eat just one!
I was pleasantly surprised how wonderful and slightly different these choc chip cookie taste. They really are the best flavored ones I have had! My daughter made them easily. Make these cookies!!
I made these tonight! Special request from my grandson who is celebrating his 16th birthday ❤️ He says it’s the best chocolate chip cookie he’s ever had and I have to ageee!
It’s super quick to put together – one bowl mixing!
Made this recipe exactly as written and it was all that was promised and more!! Highly recommend.
This is my go to chocolate chip cookie recipe! I searched for the perfect recipe for years and finally landed on this one. They are perfection!
these were so yummy and easy to make, they only took a little longer than Conan Grays album Found Heaven, (which should be longer anyway) didn’t use so many dishes so that is was a pain to clean up, and just the perfect cookies to make on a lazy Sunday!!
The recipe is fabulous I made some today to practice and they are lovely they taste and look delicious I’m going to bring them to there’s and rug show on may 2nd thanks for the recipe
These are perfect I have no words on how amazing these are
I had a blast making this recipe. The details that are provided ensure perfection. Right down to the note of nine minutes and 30 seconds for baking time, I don’t think it’s fussy. I set my timer for eight minutes, then checked on the batch. I ended up pulling them out at nine minutes and 30 seconds. They were perfect! I appreciate how I benefit from your tips and tricks. I made two batches, after the first one was a little flat, I checked the date on my ‘very old’ baking soda. Got some new stuff and wouldn’t you know it…cookie perfection! They were a great size, yummy ratio of cookie to chip, and held together while being super chewy and soft. I now have been gifted all three of your cookbooks by my sweet husband. I continue to learn from you. I really appreciate that I can count on your recipes to deliver.
These cookies came together quickly and tastes great. They had a delightfully chewy texture and the perfect crispy edges.
Your thoroughness is greatly appreciated. After my first batch was a little flat I checked the date on my baking soda. Wouldn’t you know it? It was very old. (Insert facepalm here) After getting some fresh goods, I was ready to rock ‘n’ roll. The second batch came out so perfect, I made a third. These cookies are a great size, excellent chip to cookie ratio, hold together nicely, and are soft and chewy. I appreciate that I can rely on your recipes to absolutely deliver. My hubby has gifted me all three of your cookbooks. I continue to learn from you while sharing and enjoying yummy treats. Side note, nine minutes and 30 seconds ended up being perfect for me too. I don’t think it’s fussy.
Amazing cookie. Love the buttery flavor and softness with a little crunch. 10 outta 10
So good! This recipe is on the favorite list!
