Total Time: 27 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 36 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups chocolate chips
- 1 cup cow tales candy, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, using an electric mixer on medium speed. This should take about 3-4 minutes.
- Add eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt to ensure even distribution of leavening agents.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the chocolate chips and chopped Cow Tales candy pieces using a rubber spatula, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set but still soft.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
Tips
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for optimal mixing and texture.
- Don't overmix the dough - this can lead to tough, dense cookies.
- Use a cookie scoop for uniform cookie sizes and even baking.
- Chop Cow Tales candy into small, consistent pieces for even distribution.
- Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to help them set properly.
- For extra indulgence, sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips and Cow Tales pieces on top of each cookie before baking.
- Store cookies in an airtight container with a slice of bread to maintain softness.
- For best results, use high-quality chocolate chips and fresh ingredients.
