Notes
🍪 Use Room Temperature Ingredients:
Soft butter and eggs at room temperature blend better and create a smoother dough. 🍪 Chill the Dough:
Chilling the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes helps develop flavor and prevents cookies from spreading too much. 🍪 Don’t Overmix:
After adding the flour, mix just until combined to keep the cookies tender, not tough. 🍪 Mix Chocolate Types:
Use a combination of milk, dark, and semi-sweet chocolate chips for deeper flavor and texture. 🍪 Slightly Underbake:
Take cookies out when the edges are set but the centers still look soft — they’ll continue baking on the tray.
