Ingredients:
All-Purpose Flour | 2 ¼ cups | |
Baking soda | 1 tsp | |
Semi-sweet chocolate chips (more if you like) | 1 ½ cups | |
Butter (see notes) | 1 stick (½ cup) | |
Light brown sugar, firmly packed | ¾ cup | |
Regular (Caster) sugar | ¼ cup | |
Eggs , at room temperature | 2 | |
Vanilla extract | 1 ½ tsp | |
Pecans, chopped (optional) | ½ cup | |
Salt ( Omit salt if using salted butter) | 3/4 tsp |
Method:
- Preheat your oven to 180ºc.
- Sift the flour with baking soda and ( salt if using unsalted butter) into a wide-mouth bowl; I like to sift 2 times.
- In a mixer/processor with a whisk attachment, or using a hand-held mixer beat the butter, sugars, and vanilla extract till nice and fluffy.
- Proceed to whisk in the eggs one at a time.
- Now fold in the flour by hand with a spatula till incorporated.
- Then fold in the chocolate chips and nuts (if using).
- Drop heaped spoonfuls of batter onto a baking sheet lined tray, evenly spacing them so they don’t flow into each other.
- Bake for around 9-11 minutes on the middle rack of the oven. Leave in the oven for 2 minutes to cool.
- Lift the baking sheet onto the kitchen counter to cool for a while and when cool enough to handle, transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

Notes:
- Butter – (I use salted butter every time) If using unsalted butter please add ¾ tsp salt to the flour.
- These are very simple to make, Old Fashioned Chocolate Chip Cookies.
- I like to store them in a cookie jar or tins.
- Try heating them for a change in the microwave for just a few seconds to melt the chocolate ever so lightly and provide a yummy warm cookie with a glass of cold milk!!
