What do you do when you suddenly start craving something sweet, something chewy. When you want to just gobble up the whole thing with lots of chocolate chips in it.
Well, one of these days last week, I realized I needed to go grocery shopping. We were totally running out of milk, and I needed it to make my next delicious recipe. So, I scheduled an impromptu trip to grocery store …. on an empty stomach!!! BIG MISTAKE!!!!!

Chocolate Chip Cookies Easy
As soon as I entered the store, there was this huge picture of chocolate chip cookies right on the big wall, just staring at me, begging me to take a bite. And I was starving by now!
Can you imagine what I did next?
Recipe For Chocolate Chip Cookies
I fetched the shopping cart, went to the baking aisle, picked up chocolate chips, all purpose flour, wheat flour, some butter and anything that I could remember was not at home to make myself a fresh batch of chocolate chip cookies. I know I could buy a pack from the store itself, but I was craving for that fresh, melt in your mouth cookie that I could bake only at home. I also remembered to pick up the milk though!
Because these cookies do not take that long to bake, I got to work as soon as I got home. Mixed all the ingredients together. Made huge dough balls, arranged them on my baking sheet and put them in the oven.
After about 10 mins, as the timer on my oven went off, I turned it off. Took out the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 15 minutes and over to the cooling rack for 15 minutes, can you imagine my impatience in waiting for them to get to that perfect texture.
Big Bite Chocolate Chip Cookie
Well, as I took that first big bite of my chocolate chip cookie, I was in heaven. Next 2 – 3 cookies went down just like that. They are just so soft with crispy edges and chewy in the middle. extremely easy to make.

- Make sure not to overbake. I have had some mishaps in the past and my cookies have come out dried out, and looking like bricks.
- When you take them out at the right time, they will look undercooked, pale and puffed up.
