Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your cookies. Look for chocolate chips that are made with real chocolate and butter that is unsalted and has a high fat content.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature. This will help them develop a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. This will help them keep their shape and texture.
