Lilly’s Favorite Chocolate Chip Cookies are the ultimate treat—soft, chewy, and loaded with dark chocolate chips. These cookies are a household favorite, perfect for any occasion, from weeknight desserts to festive gatherings.

 

For that fresh-from-the-oven experience every time, scoop the dough and freeze it in individual portions. When the craving hits, bake only what you need—no thawing required. The result is warm, gooey cookies whenever you want them. Chilling the dough before baking also enhances the flavor and texture, making these cookies even better!

Dr. Blake’s Top Tip: To elevate the flavor, sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on top of the dough before baking. It creates the perfect balance of sweet and salty in every bite.

 

  • Yield: 4 Dozen Cookies

Ingredients

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 cup unsalted vegan butter, room temperature

1 cup packed light brown sugar

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

2 large eggs

1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips

Instructions

1  Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, set aside. Using a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda and baking powder, set aside.

 

2  Using a large bowl, cream the butter, both sugars and the vanilla together. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the flour mixture in two batches. Fold in the chocolate chips. For a thicker cookie, chill the dough for an hour.

 

3  Using a 1-ounce scoop, or heaping tablespoon, scoop cookies onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving room for cookies to spread while baking. Bake until golden brown, about 12-14 minutes, rotating the tray halfway through baking. Cool for 2 minutes and transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight  container.
