These little bites are just as easy to make as any cookie recipe, and even easier to love thanks to their pillowy centers and sugar-coated exteriors. The mini chocolate chips scattered throughout will convince anyone resisting the urge for one of these indulgent treats.<\/p>\n<h2>Ingredients for Chocolate Chip Sugar Cookies<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Butter:<\/strong> There is a lot of butter in this recipe, so it\u2019s important to use a high-quality, great-tasting butter. You\u2019ll really be able to taste it! Our Test Kitchen pros have put together a list of their favorite <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/best-butter-taste-test\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/best-butter-taste-test\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">butter brands<\/a> for this exact purpose.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Egg:<\/strong> Bring your egg to room temperature so it blends in with the dough better. Simply submerge one egg in warm (not hot!) water for 10 minutes, and you\u2019re good to go.<\/li>\n<li><strong>All-purpose flour:<\/strong> A combination of both hard and soft gluten, all-purpose flour gives cookies stability and structure while keeping a soft, tender crumb. It\u2019s especially important for sugar cookies, which are supposed to have a characteristically delicate, pillowy bite.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mini chocolate chips:<\/strong> Mini chocolate chips disperse really well in this cookie dough. They also maintain the cookies\u2019 rounded shape better than regular-sized chocolate chips would.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Create the dough<\/h3>\n<p>Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F. In a large bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream the butter and 1 cup sugar together until they\u2019re light and fluffy, five to seven minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla.<\/p>\n<p>In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Gradually beat the flour mixture into the butter mixture just until combined.<\/p>\n<p>Using a rubber spatula, scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl to make sure everything is incorporated, then fold in the chocolate chips.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Shape into balls, and coat in sugar<\/h3>\n<p>Place the remaining 1\/2 cup sugar in a shallow bowl. Pinch off enough dough to roll into a 1-inch ball, then roll the ball in the sugar to coat it completely. Repeat this process with the rest of the dough. Arrange the balls 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.<\/p>\n<p><em>Editor\u2019s Tip:<\/em> Portion out the dough with a cookie scoop for consistency and ease.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Bake<\/h3>\n<p>Bake the cookies until the edges are very lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the sugar cookies from the pans and onto wire racks to cool.<\/p>\n<p><em>Editor\u2019s Tip:<\/em> One of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/best-tips-for-sugar-cookies\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/best-tips-for-sugar-cookies\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">best tips for sugar cookies<\/a> is to keep an eye on the clock. Overbaking them breaks the promise of soft, chewy sugar cookies, so start with the lowest time recommended. They should still be slightly soft and pliable once they\u2019re out of the oven, and they\u2019ll firm up a bit once cooled.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1977302\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Chocolate-Chip-Sugar-Cookies_FT24_123055_ST_0327_2.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Chocolate Chip Sugar Cookies Ft24 123055 St 0327 2\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Recipe Variations<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Use your favorite chocolate chips:<\/strong> Swap out the mini chocolate chips for your fave regular-sized ones. Milk, dark and semisweet all work here. Or use M&#038;Ms minis!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make them pink:<\/strong> Omit the mini chocolate chips, and use the bright-pink, vibrant ruby chocolate\u2014the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/after-80-years-a-new-fourth-type-of-chocolate-has-been-discovered\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/after-80-years-a-new-fourth-type-of-chocolate-has-been-discovered\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">fourth type of chocolate<\/a>. This ivory-colored sugar cookie makes a lovely backdrop for the pink hue to shine. These would be perfect for baby showers, birthday parties and bachelorette parties.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add nuts:<\/strong> If you\u2019re a texture person, we recommend a crunchy element in these otherwise incredibly soft, pillowy cookies. Nuts are your best bet, so chop up a handful of almonds, pecans, hazelnuts or pistachios, and fold them into the cookie dough with the chocolate chips.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make the viral version:<\/strong> A completely different cookie bearing the same name, this viral cookie hack starts with raw chocolate chip cookie dough that\u2019s scooped into balls, then a seasonal\u00a0Christmas or Halloween sugar cookie is placed in the center of each dough ball. Once baked, you\u2019re left with a fun chocolate chip and sugar cookie double-cookie.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store Chocolate Chip Sugar Cookies<\/h2>\n<p>Cool the cookies completely to room temperature, then store them on the counter in an airtight container (here are our favorite <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-cookie-storage-containers\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-cookie-storage-containers\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">cookie storage containers<\/a>). To keep the cookies soft and chewy, store a slice of bread in the container, too. The bread creates moisture, which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/soften-cookies\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/soften-cookies\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">softens the cookies<\/a> and prevents them from getting crispy over time.<\/p>\n<h2>Chocolate Chip Sugar Cookies Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1977303\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Chocolate-Chip-Sugar-Cookies_FT24_123055_ST_0327_3.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Chocolate Chip Sugar Cookies Ft24 123055 St 0327 3\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>How are these cookies different from regular chocolate chip cookies?<\/h3>\n<p>Classic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/the-ultimate-chocolate-chip-cookie\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/the-ultimate-chocolate-chip-cookie\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">chocolate chip cookies<\/a> contain both granulated sugar and brown sugar, whereas classic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/sugar-cookies\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/sugar-cookies\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">sugar cookies<\/a> use only granulated sugar. Brown sugar adds moisture, depth of flavor and a darker color. Granulated sugar adds sweetness and crisping power. Since we only use granulated sugar here, the cookies are paler than chocolate chip cookies, but the leavening agents overpower the granulated sugar&#8217;s crisping power, keeping these light, fluffy and pleasantly sweet.<\/p>\n<h3>Why are my cookies flat?<\/h3>\n<p>Cookies can turn out flat for several different reasons. One reason for flat cookies is not creaming the butter and sugar together properly. When properly beat, the mixture should be pale yellow and fluffy, taking anywhere from five to seven minutes on medium.<\/p>\n<p>Another way to prevent flat cookies is to chill your unbaked dough balls before baking them off. Just 10 to 15 minutes in the fridge should do the trick.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These easy chocolate chip sugar cookies are pillowy little dreams.
