A chocolate chip cookie is a drop cookie that features chocolate chips or chocolate morsels as its distinguishing ingredient. 

Chocolate chip cookies originated in the United States in 1938, when Ruth Graves Wakefield chopped up a Nestlé semi-sweet chocolate bar and added the chopped chocolate to a cookie recipe.

Here's a classic chocolate chip cookie recipe:

Ingredients:

  •  2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  •  1 tsp baking soda
  •  1 tsp salt
  •  1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
  •  3/4 cup granulated sugar
  •  3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  •  2 large eggs
  •  1 tsp vanilla extract
  •  2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then add the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually stir in the flour mixture until just combined.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  7. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  9. Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Enjoy your delicious homemade chocolate chip cookies!
