Christmas Chocolate Chip Cookies

INGREDIENTS:

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

3/4 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 large egg

2 tsp vanilla extract

3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1/2 cup white chocolate chips

1/3 cup Christmas sprinkles

INSTRUCTIONS:

1 Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2 Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.

3 In another bowl, beat softened butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar until creamy.

4 Mix in the egg and vanilla until smooth.

5 Gradually add the dry ingredients and mix just until a soft dough forms.

6 Fold in the chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, and Christmas sprinkles.

7 Scoop generous balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each one.

8 Press a few extra chocolate chips and sprinkles on top for that bakery-style finish.

9 Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still look soft.

10 Let them rest on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

Cookie Tip:
Don’t overbake them, the slightly soft centers are what give these cookies that thick, chewy, melt-in-your-mouth texture.
