This easy homemade chewy cookies recipe makes a large batch of soft, chewy treats using simple pantry staples. Perfect for sharing, freezing, and satisfying sweet cravings with minimal fuss.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (226 grams) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 ½ cups (300 grams) packed brown sugar
  • ½ cup (100 grams) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 cups (375 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups (340 grams) semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
  2. Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl or on the stove, then let it cool slightly (about 3-5 minutes).
  3. In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Whisk together until smooth and glossy, about 2 minutes.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract until creamy and well combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  6. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Avoid over-mixing.
  7. Fold in chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  8. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes to 1 hour to control spreading and boost chewiness.
  9. Scoop dough onto baking sheets about 2 inches apart using a cookie scoop or tablespoon. Expect about 36-40 cookies.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes, rotating halfway through. Cookies should look set but still soft in the center.
  11. Let cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to firm up without hardening.

Notes

Use melted butter for a denser, chewier texture but ensure it is warm, not hot, to avoid cooking the eggs. Chill dough to control spreading and improve chewiness. Avoid overmixing once flour is added. Bake on the middle rack for even heat distribution. If cookies spread too thin, chill dough longer or add a tablespoon more flour. Lower oven temperature by 10°F if edges brown too quickly.
