Hello and welcome back to In the Kitchen with Matt, I am your host Matt Taylor. Today I am going to show you how to make Chocolate Chip Cookies, mmm yummy, these chocolate chip cookies are soft, chewy, super yummy, really easy to make, chocolate chip cookies are my favorite cookie to make and eat. What is your favorite cookie? Drop a comment down below and let me know. Lets get started. First preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Then we start with 1 cup of softened butter, 1 half cup of white granulated sugar, 1 cup of packed brown sugar, okay now using a hand mixer or stand mixer, lets cream this all together, once it is creamed together lets go ahead and scrape down the sides, at this point we are going to add our eggs, one at a time, first large egg, now lets add two teaspoons of vanilla extr, now we take 2 and a half cups of all purpose flour, we will add one tsp. of baking soda, on half tsp. of salt. Then we will go ahead and use a whisk or you can sift it together, and we will mix it all together. All right now lets take our flour and we are going to just add about a third of it at a time, mix, alright add some more flour, now we want to scrape the sides as needed, add more flour, and then before I add the rest of the flour, at this step I am going to add 2 cups of chocolate chips, these are semi-sweet, you can you use milk chocolate as well, this equals about one package here in the States, I am going to mix those in. Okay, and then lets add the rest of our flour, then one last scraping of the sides. Alright our cookie dough is done, and now what we are going to do is we need to separate our beaters and now time to clean off those beaters, and then you can just use your spatula, come in here and push them out. Alright once our cookie dough is done, it is time to form our cookies, I am using a cookie sheet with an Artisan Mat on top, this is a Silicone baking mat, really awesome, really love these silicon baking mats, they clean really easy, they last a really long time, they help to keep the cookies from getting burnt on the bottom, and uh, if you want to pick a couple of these up, I will put a link down below where you can get them, really awesome, I highly recommend them especially for cookies. So what we do is we take a spoon or ice cream scoop and we take some cookie dough, its about 2 tablespoons worth, and go ahead and drop it on there, and you can form it a little bit, with your hand if you want, just like that, whatever side you want to make, big ones, little ones, whatever you want to make, about an inch and a half apart. All right and then you bake these in the oven at 350 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes, depending on the size of the cookie, if you make them bigger, bake them a little longer, smaller a little shorter, until the edges are just slightly brown. All right so we cook them until the edges are just slightly brown right there, and then you take them out of the oven and let them sit on the cookie sheet, for about 5 minutes to cool before transferring them to a cookie rack to cool the rest of the way.
