These simple Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies<\/em><\/strong> are just that! They have a tender but dense texture that\u2019s loaded with melty chocolate chips. They\u2019re also easy to make! You can have gooey and soft chocolate chip cookies in minutes that are bakery-worthy.<\/p>\n

Why I love this soft chocolate chip cookie recipe<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019ve baked any of my other cookie recipes<\/a>, then you know that I love a chocolate chip cookie in just about any form. However, there\u2019s just something about a soft chocolate chip cookie that ALWAYS sounds good!<\/p>\n

So for this version, I\u2019m pulling out all the stops to bake the most tender texture. This includes the use of cake flour instead of all-purpose flour as it has a lower protein content. We\u2019re also using a mix of butter and coconut oil to create a rich and soft consistency. <\/p>\n

Instead of granulated sugar, we\u2019re using powdered sugar to further enhance that light and airy texture. Last, a bit of cream of tartar ensures these cookies stay nice and soft. <\/p>\n

Since the dough itself is so rich, it must be chilled for 1 hour. It\u2019s worth the wait! Baking dough that is chilled solid will help create that thick and soft center. <\/p>\n

In the end, you\u2019re left with a warm and soft cookie with the meltiest center. Stick with the dark chocolate chips if you want an extra gooey bite! <\/p>\n

Tools needed to make these chocolate chip cookies<\/h2>\n

This cookie dough is the best when mixed by hand, so no special mixers needed. Yep, just THAT easy!<\/p>\n

To get the most out of these cookies, go for a large cookie scoop<\/strong><\/a>. Using this makes 13 large cookies. The larger the cookie, the thicker and softer the center will be.<\/p>\n

I also recommend using a large baking sheet<\/a><\/strong>. You\u2019ll want to bake this dough ASAP to prevent it from drying out, so try to bake as many cookies as you can at once. BUT don\u2019t overcrowd the oven. Only bake with one baking sheet at a time on the middle rack. The goal is to bake the cookie dough in 2-3 batches.<\/p>\n

Also place the cookies about 3 inches apart. Don\u2019t place more than 6 large cookies on a large baking sheet<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Lastly, make sure to cover the baking sheet in parchment paper<\/strong>. This prevents the cookies from sticking while allowing them to spread evenly. Using foil or a silpat could flatten the cookies.<\/em><\/p>\n

How to make your chocolate chip cookies look PERFECT<\/h2>\n

Here are a few tips to get your cookies photo ready, or just to look even more mouth watering than they already are!<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Top the dough balls with chocolate chips<\/strong>. Adding 4-5 extra chocolate chips on top of each cookie dough ball allows the cookies to bake with glossy, melty puddles. <\/li>\n
  2. When they\u2019re warm from the oven and still on the baking sheet, place even more chocolate chips on top<\/strong>. I\u2019ll add maybe 1-2 more after they\u2019re done baking to fill in any gaps where it just feels like a chip needs to be here! <\/li>\n
  3. If you have a couple cookies that don\u2019t bake perfectly round, use the inside curve of a fork to press the sides back in<\/strong>. Do so while they\u2019re still warm on the baking sheet.<\/li>\n
  4. Sprinkle the tops with a little sea salt!<\/strong> This is totally optional, but makes these cookies go from homemade to gourmet. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies FAQs<\/h2>\n
    \n
    When is the best time to eat soft cookies?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

    These are best when they\u2019re still warm. At this point, the chocolate is gooey and the cookies are buttery and tender. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

    Can I use semisweet chocolate chips instead?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

    Absolutely! I just prefer dark chocolate chips here because they\u2019re EXTRA gooey.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

    Can I make the cookies smaller?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

    Technically, yes. Although the large cookie lends itself to that soft and gooey texture we\u2019re going for.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

    Can I chill the dough for longer than an hour?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

    Yes, the dough needs to chill for at least an hour (I found this is the sweet spot) but it can be chilled for up to 2 days. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

    How can I reheat these soft chocolate chip cookies?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

    As the cookies cool, they will firm up just a bit. To revive that soft and gooey texture, you can pop a cookie in the microwave for about 15-30 seconds.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

    How long do these cookies keep?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

    Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. They will keep for up to 3 days, reheating when needed.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
