Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies

Craving classic chocolate chip cookies just like your Mom or Grandma used to make? These classic chocolate chip cookies will do the trick. They are perfectly crispy on the edges and soft and gooey in the center. You likely have all the ingredients in your pantry already.

This recipe will yield approximately 4 dozen BIG cookies. Do you have a cookie dough scoop? If so, you will want to use a rounded scoop, approximately 2 large tablespoons per cookie.

Just as every cookie recipe out there will tell you, DO NOT OVER BAKE THESE COOKIES! You will want to pull them out of the oven when they are barely starting to brown on the edges. They will be puffy, but will settle and continue to bake a little while cooling.
