1 stick (1/2 cup) softened butter (salted or unsalted)
3/4 cup sugar, granulated, light brown, or dark brown or combination of
1 large egg
1 cup plus 2 TBSP flour, all-purpose, self rising, or bread (lightly spoon the flour into the measuring cup and level off. Do not pack down when measuring!)
1 cup chocolate chips (any kind your prefer or have on hand)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350ºF.
Mix the butter and sugar together until completely combined.
Add the egg and mix until incorporated.
Stir in the flour then the chocolate chips until combined.
Scoop into mounds about 1 TBSP each onto ungreased cookie sheets (you can use a silpat or parchment paper to line your sheets). Do not put more than 9 cookies per sheet.
Bake at 350ºF until just set on the edges and middle still looks undercooked. About 8-12 minutes. (if you did not use brown sugar the cookies will not brown because of the lack of baking soda and baking powder)
Allow to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before removing. Cookies will continue to cook on the sheets for a few minut
