The BEST Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

Chocolate chip cookie lovers – this recipe is for you; The Best Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies!

I am always on the hunt for a delicious chocolate chip cookie and this really is the BEST Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe that I have found.

I prefer my chocolate chip cookies to be soft and chewy and this recipe hits the spot!

We have all kinds of versions of a chocolate chip cookie on our website (such as Oreo Filled Chocolate Chip Cookies, Almond Joy Chocolate Chip Cookies, Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies), but not an actual tried-and-true chocolate chip recipe, so that is why I am sharing this recipe with you today.

What Makes These Chocolate Chip Cookies, Chewy?

I have found that having a larger, thicker mound of cookie dough helps to make the cookie chewier.

The key to a chewy cookie is to roll the ball of dough taller than they are wide. These tall, thick cookies will firm up quickly and the shape of the cookie dough helps to minimize spreading (thin cookies = crispy cookies).

The other important key to getting a soft and chewy cookie is to not overbake them – you might think that they are not quite done in the middle, but the cookies will continue to cook even after you remove them from the oven.

You will want to watch the edge of the cookies and when they start to barely turn a golden brown, it’s time to remove them from the oven.

The Basic Ingredients That Every Chocolate Chip Cookies Should Have:

  • all-purpose flour (I have not tried this recipe with gluten-free flour)
  • combination of white and brown sugar (I use light brown sugar, but dark will work too)
  • salt
  • eggs
  • baking soda (or some type of leavening agent)
  • butter (or another fat like shortening)
  • vanilla extract
  • and of course chocolate chips!

Why Add an Egg AND and Egg Yolk?

I know that it seems strange to add an egg AND and egg yolk, but eggs are a CRUCIAL part of a chocolate chip cookie!

Because we are going for a soft and chewy texture, the extra added egg yolk will make your cookies a little more dense and fudgy. The egg yolk will add more fat to the cookies, hindering both the gluten forming in the cookie and air escaping from the cookie.

The end result from adding that extra egg yolk: more dense, fudgier, softer, chewier cookies.

So yes, add a whole egg and then that extra egg yolk!

Butter vs Margarine

For this recipe, we recommend unsalted butter. DO NOT use margarine for this recipe – you will not get the soft, chewy cookies that you came here for.

Margarine has about 20% more liquid in it than butter and that extra liquid is what causes all the problems of cookies being too crispy or flattening out to thin pancakes.

When it comes to baking the perfect cookie, go for the butter. The more fat, the softer and chewier these cookies will be.

Chocolate Chip Cookies together

How to Make These Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies:

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line your cookie sheets with parchment paper, or spray with non stick cooking spray.

In a large bowl sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

In a medium bowl cream together the partially melted butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until well blended.

Then beat in vanilla, egg, and egg yolk until light and creamy.

Mix in the sifted ingredients until just blended. Gently fold in the chocolate chips by hand using a wooden spoon.

Drop cookie dough by 1/4 cup portions onto prepared cookie sheet. (Yes, these are big cookies!) Place cookies about 3 inches apart on pan.

Bake for 10-14 minutes in oven or until edges are just starting to turn golden brown.

Cool on baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling. Then transfer to wire racks to finish cooling.

    Fantastic recipe! The blog post is a little confusing though, because it says "egg white" twice when it's supposed to say egg yolk. For example "The egg white will add more fat to the cookies...". Egg whites have no fat and the recipe only intends for a yolk to be added, so editing the post will clear things right up.

    Made this recipe last night and everybody loved the cookies. I varied the recipe by mistake but it still came out great. When I made it I mixed all the dry ingredients and then added them to the egg, vanilla, and butter. It was easy to mix in the chocolate chips with the edges crisp and soft and chewy middle. They were not too thick but still very tasty, especially with milk or coffee.

      The important thing about self-rising flour is to NOT use it as a substitute for all-purpose flour, or else you will experience severe disappointment in how your treats will turn out. Self-rising flour is unique in that it has had leavening agents (the ingredients that make the baked good rise) spread throughout the flour already. Most recipes like biscuits and other fluffy baked goods commonly call for this type of flour.

      Hi Merisa. Sorry about the problems you are having with baking. The Best Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies are one of our favorite recipes. You can always add a little more flour than suggested. Here are some pointers I found for you- Adjustment for 5000 feet: Reduce baking powder: for each teaspoon, decrease 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon. Reduce sugar: for each cup, decrease 0 to 2 tablespoons. Increase liquid: for each cup, add 2 to 4 tablespoons. Increase oven temperature by 25 degrees F.

    I just made these and they taste delicious! I used a 1/4 cup scoop like stated in the recipe, but was able to only yield 12 cookies plus one bite extra. I'm in the process of batch number 2 (seriously the taste is so great) but am using a standard cookie scoop and the results are much better. I didn't have nearly as much spread and was able to yield 23 cookes.

    I followed the recipe exactly. I ended up only having 1 1/2 cups of chocolate chips, but even then it was WAY too much. I would recommend doing 1 cup chocolate chips and definitely using light brown sugar (I only had dark available). I also made them smaller rather than doing the 1/4 cup spoonfuls. I also formed them taller rather than wider and they seemed to come out tall and fluffy. Overall very tasty but would tweak next time!

    Mine turned out AMAZING & DELICIOUS! I used 1 cup of semi sweet chocolate and 1 cup chopped walnuts. I baked the first batch at 325 for 16 min. Perfect for my taste because I like them slightly undone. The second batch, I upped the temp to 340 for 14 min which made them a little more brown and crispier on the edges for my husband. I got 15 cookies and used slightly less than a 1/4 cup. Definitely will be my go to!

    Tried this recipe because the photo used looked the most aesthetically pleasing out of all i’ve seen. Followed the recipe and the TASTE and TEXTURE was sooo good! I chilled the dough for about an hour since I did not want to handle a very soft and wet mixture when scooping. (I used a small cookie scoop and it yielded 36 cookies) I saved 1/3 cup of chocolate chips from the 2 cups to stud the scooped cookie dough. REMEMBER TO STUD THE COOKIE BALLS WITH CHOCOLATE CHIPS OTHERWISE YOUR COOKIES WILL NOT LOOK ANYTHING LIKE THE PHOTOS HERE. I’m very happy with this recipe and I can really say this is the best chocolate chip cookie recipe I have tried!

      Hi Amanda. That is so strange where you had great luck with these cookies the first few times you made them. This is where I would make some changes. I would not melt the butter, maybe just soften it. Add a little more flour, or chill the dough. Those things should help so your cookies won't flatten.

I did the first batch as monster cookies (1/4 cup) for ~17 minutes and they came out perfect (5 cookies). Second batch I used rounded tablespoons for ~15 minutes to help them last longer (17 cookies). Delish!

    I have made these cookies directly by this recipe-very carefully-many, many times. They are loved and complimented every single time. Getting ready to make a few batches for church gathering and wondered if you’d experimented with these frozen. Do you have an recommendation for freezing (precooked of course). Any alterations? Thanks so much for the recipe btw!!!

    ABSOLUTELY THE BEST Chocolate Chip Cookie! I have 3 or 4 other recipes that are going in the trash. This is the only one you need.

    This is my daughter's go-to chocolate chip cookie recipe. We have found that two cups of chocolate chips is too much, and reduce it to one cup. We also substitute the butter for Earth Balance so that the cookies are dairy free (my son is allergic to dairy). My daughter loooooves making the huge cookies, but I usually try to make half the batch smaller so they can fit in their lunch boxes.

    I love this recipe so much. My husband eats chocolate chip cookies like they are potato chips, so you can imagine we have tried many recipes in our days. However, when we came across this recipe my husband reaction was the best. He looked like he had tried a chocolate chip cookie for the first time. He told me I can't use any other recipe again. I don't mind that because I agree, these are the best chocolate chip cookies I have tried. They are chewy, soft, and delicious. It is such an easy recipe to follow that it is easy for my 2 and 4 year old to help out in making them. This is the only recipe I share with people when they ask for a chocolate chip recipe.

    Turned out super soft! My first batch i greased pan with butter and they turned out way better than the batch I used parchment paper. :)
