Easy Chocolate Chip Cookies Without Brown Sugar are a breeze to make and produce a bakery-style cookie right at home that melts in your mouth! These cookies are made with only white sugar and have no chill time. That means this chewy cookie can be made in 30 minutes!
Preheat the oven to 350° degrees F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl melt the ¾ cup unsalted butter in the microwave until completely melted. Add the ¾ cup sugar to the melted butter and whisk to combine.
Add the egg and egg yolk and whisk again well. Using a whisk and mixing well will create shiny, crackly tops on the cookies. Add in the 2 tsp vanilla extract and mix again.
Add the 2 cups flour, ½ tsp baking soda, and ½ tsp kosher salt and mix to combine using either a whisk or spatula. The dough will still be a little sticky.
Add the 1 ½ cups chocolate chips and mix to combine evenly.
Using an ice cream scoop, scoop out the cookie dough onto the parchment paper leaving 2 inches between the dough. I bake 6 cookies at a time on a sheet, 3 on each row. Bake one tray at a time on the middle rack for the best results.
Bake for 10-11 minutes until the edges are very light brown not golden brown.
Immediately after removing the cookies, take a round cookie cutter or a small bowl that is larger than the cookie and place it over the cookie and scoot in a circular motion. This will make the cookies perfectly round and a little more gooey!
Cool for 2 more minutes on the cookie sheet then cool completely on a wire rack.
Notes
Please make sure to measure your flour correctly! The best way to do that is with a kitchen scale. A measuring cup is not as reliable and you can end up using too much flour altering the recipe.
