Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven
    Begin by preheating your oven to 300°F (150°C). This ensures that your cookies bake evenly and at the perfect temperature.

  2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients
    In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking soda. Set the dry ingredients aside for later.

  3. Blend the Wet Ingredients
    In a separate large bowl, combine the brown sugar, softened butter, honey, and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, beat the ingredients together on medium speed until the mixture is smooth, well blended, and slightly fluffy. Scrape the sides of the bowl to make sure everything is well incorporated.

  4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
    Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients. Mix until everything is just combined. Important: Be sure not to overmix the dough. Overmixing can result in dense cookies, so only mix until you no longer see any dry flour streaks.

  5. Add the Chocolate Chips
    Gently fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon, ensuring that they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.

  6. Scoop the Dough
    Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto an ungreased non-stick baking sheet. Space each cookie about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading during baking.

  7. Bake the Cookies
    Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15 to 18 minutes. Keep an eye on the cookies, and remove them once they’re golden brown around the edges. If you prefer crispier cookies, extend the baking time to 18 to 25 minutes. Just make sure not to over-bake, as you want them to remain soft in the center.

  8. Cool and Serve
    Once the cookies are baked to perfection, remove them from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack for a few minutes. This will help them set and firm up without becoming too crumbly. Once cooled, enjoy your easy and delicious homemade chocolate chip cookies!


Tips for Perfect Cookies

  • Butter Temperature: Make sure the butter is softened to room temperature before mixing. If it’s too hard, the dough won’t blend properly, and if it’s too soft or melted, the cookies may spread too much while baking.
  • Cookie Size: For uniform cookies, try using a cookie scoop. This ensures each cookie is the same size, which helps them bake evenly.
  • Storage: Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze the cookies for up to 3 months.
