Aldi Chocolate Chip Cookies
Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 10-12 minutes
Total Time: 25-27 minutes
Servings: 24 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Mix Wet Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Mix in the vanilla extract.
- Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
- Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Shape the Cookies:
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake:
- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown around the edges but still soft in the center.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips
- Softened Butter: Ensure the butter is softened to room temperature for easier mixing and better texture.
- Chilling the Dough: For thicker cookies, you can chill the dough for about 30 minutes before baking.
- Storage: Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
