nestle toll house cookies recipe Gooey Chips with Sea Salt Sparkle
- Total Time: 40 minutes
- Yield: 4 dozen cookies 1x
- Diet: General
Description
This recipe delivers consistently incredible, soft, and chewy chocolate chip cookies with irresistibly melty chocolate and a hint of sea salt sparkle, making gourmet-level cookies easy for any home cook.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1.5 tsp vanilla extract
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 12 oz Nestle Toll House semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 tsp flaky sea salt, optional
Instructions
- Prep Your Space: Preheat oven to 375(deg)F (190(deg)C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cream Butter & Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Beat in eggs one at a time until just combined, then stir in vanilla extract. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Mix Wet & Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet, mixing on low speed until just combined. (If dough looks too dry, splash in 1-2 teaspoons of milk.)
- Fold In Chips: Gently fold in the Nestle Toll House semi-sweet chocolate chips with a spatula until evenly distributed.
- Scoop & Sprinkle: Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space. Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on top of each cookie dough ball if using.
- Bake Cookies: Bake for 9-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft and puffy.
- Cool & Enjoy: Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For best results, use pure vanilla, ensure butter is truly softened (not melted), and check baking soda expiration. To prevent spreading, chill dough for 30 minutes. Avoid overmixing or overbaking to prevent dry cookies; for gooey cookies, remove when centers are soft and shiny. Consider substitutions like different chocolate types or oat flour for varied texture.
