How to make the best chocolate chip cookies ever from scratch

Can I say this is the easiest chocolate chip cookie recipe in the world? But wait, I’m not only gonna say it, I’ll show you how easy these cookies really are!

No, I won’task for you to soften your butter or get to room temperature any ingredient (quick note: this is an eggless cookie recipe!) - get them straight from your fridge if you wish. Here, cookies will turn out great with or without cold butter.

For this recipe, you’ll need to whisk together all the dry ingredients, then add the margarine and the butter - yes, this cookie is made with both butter and margarine, and yes, it still tastes great, trust me! You’ll do these two steps in five minutes, and the best part: you don’t need a mixer. I put the dough together with my hands only - just make sure towash them really well before starting.

At first, it will look like this dough will never come together: it will start verycrumbly, in fact it will look like a crumble top. Keep mixing everything and after less than five minutes you’ll end up with a perfect cookie dough.

Secret ingredient for my quick cookies

Ok, you may be thinking I’m promissing too much here. Only 5 minutes to make a cookie dough, margarine, no chilling time, no eggs, there must be some secret ingredient that makes this recipe taste amazing.

Well, there is. Have you heard about powdered milk? Yeah, this stuff is like the MSG of baking: one spoonful and everything tastes better!

How to bake them

This recipe is so quick to put together you’ll need to preheat your oven before starting the dough. So go, preheat it to 350°F and come back here.

I know that, for someone who is starting to bake, a simple cookie can be reallydifficult to get it done, and that’s why I chose this recipe. I have a butter-only cookie recipe, but it took me some tries to get it right, and it was so enervating when a whole batch turned out paper-flat! Oh, I can still remember the frustration. I just wanted a thick cookie, what’s the matter with this recipe/oven/cookie??

In mine, thanks to the margarine, you choose the thickness of your cookie, and I absolutely love this part. They will spread a little, but far less than a butter-only cookie. Get a spoonful of cookie dough and shape it like a ball. Here you can use a spoon, a cookie scoop or even your hands.

Put the dough over a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet, leaving some space between them.

For how long should I bake my cookies?

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they’re sightly golden on the edges. Just remember thatthey should not get golden on the top. Don’t bake for more than 15 minutes!

The cookies will come out of the oven veeeeery soft, it will look like they’re underbaked, but they’re not! Let them cool for 5 minutes on the sheet pan, then transfer all the cookies to a cooling rack with the help of a spatula and wait 5 more for them to set.

Why this cookie recipe can become your next favourite

So, this choco chip cookie is easy, fast, and full of yumminess, with chewy edges and a soft, perfect centre. What more can you possibly want? Different cookie flavours, of course!

• Make this cookie without brown sugar: add 1 cup of white sugar instead of ½ white sugar, ½ brown sugar. The finalresult will be less chewy.
• Make it double chocolate: while measuring the last all-purpose flour cup, lessen it by 3 tablespoons. Add 3 tablespoons of cocoa powder. Try also substituting chocolate chips for chunks of your favorite chocolate.
• Make it white chocolate heaven: substitute chocolate chips for white chocolate chips, and add ¼ cup of sliced almonds if desired.
• Put some coconut on it: add ¼ coconut slices/chips.

About my Chocolate Chip Cookies

How long do they keep?
They’re good for about a month, if kept at room temperature, into an airtight container. Doubt they will last that long.

Can I freeze the cookie dough?
Yes, you can! I do it sometimes, cause it’s great to have some cookie dough ready to be baked: I can easily have enough for 1 serving this way. Freeze them already in the shape/thikness you want, cause frozen, they spread even less. Don’t forget to put them into a sealed plastic bag, pushing the air out before sealing. In my freezer, this never lasts more than 1 month.

Can I use shortening?
Never tried with shortening, better stick with margarine for this recipe.

How many cookies I’ll get with this recipe?
About 24 small-to-medium-sized chocolate chip cookies. I think that’s enough for serving 4 hungry people - if everyone is ok with only 6 cookies each. If you want a small batch, just make half the recipe - or bake as much as you want and freeze the unbaked dough.
