- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture and stir until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they’re evenly distributed.
Baking
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie as they will spread.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges appear set and the centers look slightly underbaked for that chewy texture.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
