Step-by-Step Instructions

The first thing I always do is prepare the cookie dough. I cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until the mixture becomes light, fluffy, and creamy. Then I add the vanilla extract and egg before mixing again until everything is perfectly smooth. Once that’s ready, I stir in the flour just until a soft cookie dough forms. Finally, I fold in both dark and milk chocolate chips. I love using a combination because the two chocolates create a deeper, more balanced flavor. Trust me, don’t overmix the dough once the flour is added because that can make the crust less tender. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
