Instructions

  1. Whisk melted butter with both sugars until smooth.

  2. Beat in the eggs and a splash of vanilla.

  1. Fold in flour, baking soda and salt, then the chocolate chips.

  2. Chill the dough 30 minutes for thicker cookies.

  3. Scoop and bake at 180°C for 10–12 minutes until edges set but centres look soft.

💡 Tips

Pull them out while the middles still look underdone — they finish setting on the tray and stay chewy. Chilling stops them spreading too thin.

📝 Notes

The unbaked dough freezes well — bake from frozen, adding 2 minutes.
