4 Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies



What you need,

2 tbsp. butter (I used salted like I always do)
¼ cup packed brown sugar
1 large egg yolk
½ tsp. vanilla
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
¼ tsp. baking soda
¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the egg yolk and beat well. Stir in the vanilla. 
Add the flour and baking soda and stir until well combined.
Stir in the chocolate chips.

Divide the dough into 4 portions and roll gently into balls. Place them on the parchment paper and press lightly just to flatten a little bit.

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly browned around the edges but the middle is still a bit soft looking.

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the pan for 4-5 minutes. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

Eat 1 or all 4 at your leisure.
