Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies

Crispy edges and gooey center...what else needs to be said?

These are the best cookies ever. You can believe me, or not. I don't care.

Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

• 1/2 cup white sugar

• 1/2 cup brown sugar

• 1 egg

• 1 tsp vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract)

• 2 cups all purpose flour

• 1/2 tsp baking soda

• 1/2 tsp baking powder

• 1/2 tsp salt

• 2 cups roughly chopped bittersweet chocolate

Directions:

1. In a large bowl, cream the butter for a minute, until slightly fluffy, add in sugars and continue creaming for another minute.

2. Add in egg and vanilla and beat until combined.

3. Fold in dry ingredients with a spatula, the dough should be slightly sticky.

4. Fold in chopped chocolate.

5. Scoop onto a prepared baking sheet and place in fridge for 25 minutes to 3 days (cover with plastic wrap if you refrigerate for over 8 hours).

6. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 mins, or until edges are slightly golden.

7. Remove the cookies from the oven and set them in a baking rack for 10 minutes. Voila! Your cookies are ready. Serve them right after or store them in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
