The Best ooey gooey cookie recipe

I’m so excited to share my favorite ooey gooey cookie recipe with you all. I’ve been making these cookies for years, and they’re always a hit with my family and friends.

The best part is that they’re ridiculously easy to make and require only a few ingredients. I love that the dough comes together quickly and easily, and the cookies bake up perfectly in no time.

My kids adore helping me mix the dough and scoop out the cookies, and they always ask for seconds (and sometimes thirds!) after they’re done.

These cookies are perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a special treat for a family dinner or a fun snack for a party. And the best part?

They’re relatively healthy compared to traditional cookies, thanks to the use of whole wheat flour and natural sweeteners.

🥘Ingredients

For the Dough

1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

👨‍🍳Directions

1Preheat oven to 350°F.
2Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
4Use an electric mixer to ensure thorough mixing.
5This should take about 2-3 minutes.
6The mixture should be pale and smooth.
7Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
8Add the vanilla extract and mix until fully incorporated.
9In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt.
10Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
11Be careful not to overmix.
12The dough should be thick and slightly sticky.
13Fold in the chocolate chips.
14The dough will be thick and may be difficult to stir.
15The chocolate chips will be evenly distributed throughout the dough.
16Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
17The dough balls should be uniform in size for even baking.
18Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes.
19The edges should be lightly golden, and the centers should still look soft.
20The cookies will firm up as they cool.
21Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
22The cookies should be cool enough to handle but still warm to the touch.
