These Chocolate Chip Cookies are seriously the best!! Thick, chewy, and perfectly golden brown, once you try them, your search for the perfect chocolate chip cookie will be over. Guaranteed!
Have you ever gone on a search for the perfect chocolate chip cookie? I feel like I’ve been on one for years! Not even kidding. Because if there’s one thing that can win people over, and put smiles on faces, and make everything better….it’s a really good chocolate chip cookie.
My first experience of winning people over with cookies? Way back when I was in 6th grade. I made cookies for my birthday party….and they turned out amazing. Which was especially important because this wasn’t just any birthday party. It was a birthday sleepover, and all the “popular” girls (who I had just become friends with) were there.
I asked my mom if we could get special snacks and drinks and do a fashion show and stay up all night. And other than staying up all night, I’m pretty sure my mom said yes to all of it. Probably because she knew how nervous I was, and how important it felt, and how much I wanted everything to be “just right”. Well, everything was just right….especially the cookies. And I was one happy 6th grader.
But here’s the thing. I have never since that oh-so-important birthday party been able to recreate those perfect chocolate chip cookies. That is, until now. These cookies are exactly like the ones that won over the popular crowd….except better. Because they’re made with browned butter! And browned butter makes ALL the difference. They’re crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, thick, buttery, and packed with delicious flavor. In other words, they’re the BEST chocolate cookies ever!!! Perfect for winning people over, putting smiles on faces, and making everything better.
