Recipe Steps:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream the Butter and Sugars:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add Wet Ingredients:
- Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips:
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Shape the Cookies:
- Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, portion the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Shape each portion into a long, rectangular stick, about 3 inches long and 1 inch wide. Flatten slightly with your fingers.
- Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still slightly soft. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve:
- Serve the cookie dippers with a glass of milk, coffee, or hot chocolate for dipping.
Storage Options:

- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk chocolate, based on preference)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven and Prepare Pans:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and baking soda. Set aside.
- Cream Butter and Sugars:

- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:

- Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie as they will spread a little while baking.
