Ingredients
Scale
This recipe is all about minimalism. You likely have most of these ingredients in your pantry already, and if not, they’re easy to substitute. Let’s keep it simple:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (or your favorite mix-ins)
If you’re missing any of these, don’t worry! Swap the chocolate chips with nuts or dried fruits. And if you’re out of vanilla, just skip it—this recipe is forgiving like that.
Instructions
Let’s get to the fun part—making this delightful treat! Follow these simple steps:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Stir to mix well.
- Pour in the melted butter and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture forms a crumbly dough.
- Fold in the chocolate chips or your chosen mix-ins.
- Using a spoon, scoop dollops of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Remember, they’ll continue to cook a bit on the baking sheet after you take them out.
- Let them cool for a few minutes before devouring. Trust me, the wait is worth it!
And there you have it, a dessert that embraces imperfections and celebrates the little wins—like getting cookies on the table in under 20 minutes!
