This very easy chocolate chip cookie recipe is perfect when you want homemade cookies without complicated steps, special equipment, or hours of chilling. The dough comes together in one bowl and only needs to rest for five minutes before baking.

The cookies are soft and buttery, with slightly golden edges and plenty of dark chocolate. You can use the suggested amount of chocolate—or add more. I think we all know which option I recommend.

Of all the easy chocolate chip cookie recipes you could make, this may become your favorite for one simple reason: warm chocolate chip cookies can be ready in less than 30 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 7.8 oz (220 g) all-purpose flour

  • 2½ teaspoons baking powder (10 g)

  • 4 tablespoons white sugar, approximately 1.8 oz (50 g)

  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar or cane sugar, approximately 0.4 oz (12 g)

  • 5.3 oz (150 g) unsalted butter, melted

  • 5.3 oz (150 g) dark chocolate, roughly chopped—plus more if you’d like

  • 1 medium egg

  • A pinch of baking soda

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, white sugar, and brown or cane suga. Mix the ingredients.
  • Add the melted butter and egg. Mix until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Fold in the chopped dark chocolate. The dough will be very soft and almost wet—don’t worry, that is exactly how it should look.
  • Let the dough rest for five minutes. You can place it in the fridge for those 5 minutes, if your room is warm.
  • Take small portions of dough and gently roll them into balls with your hands. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one, and press them down slightly.
  • Bake for approximately 10-13 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden around the edges.
  • Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack and wait until they cool before tasting them—if you can. I usually consider this step more of a suggestion than a rule 🙂
