Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line your baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Mix the flour, baking soda, and salt (dry ingredients) in a medium-sized bowl.
- In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 3-4 minutes).
- Beat in the eggs one by one, making sure that each is completely integrated. Add the vanilla extract.
- Stirring until just incorporated, gradually combine the dry ingredients with the wet ones.
- Fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring even distribution.
- Round tablespoons of dough should be dropped, separated by around 2 inches, onto the baking sheets that have been prepared.
- Bake for ten to twelve minutes, or until the centers are still tender but the sides are golden brown.
- Place the cookies on a wire rack to cool completely after five minutes on the baking sheet.

Notes
Making Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies without brown sugar can be a unique twist on the traditional recipe. While brown sugar typically adds moisture and a chewy texture due to its molasses content, using only granulated white sugar results in a crisper, slightly flatter cookie. The flavor will also be less caramel-like, but still deliciously sweet and buttery. If you’re out of brown sugar or prefer a crisper texture, this version works perfectly. Just keep an eye on the baking time, as they may bake a bit faster! For added depth, consider adding a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of cinnamon.
