Nestle Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe
Soft, gooey, and utterly irresistible, this Nestle Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe brings classic homemade baking into your kitchen in under an hour.
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour spooned & leveled
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed light or dark brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- 2 cups Nestle Toll House Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels
- 1 cup chopped nuts optional—walnuts or pecans add a nutty crunch
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone mat—this helps cookies bake evenly and slide off easily.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Setting this aside prevents pockets of leavener in your dough.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer (or using a hand mixer), beat the softened butter with both sugars until light and fluffy.
- Crack in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing until no more streaks of flour are visible. Fold in the Nestle chocolate morsels and nuts, if using.
- For thicker, chewier cookies, cover the dough and refrigerate for 30–45 minutes.
- Scoop dough balls using a cookie scoop. Place them on the prepared sheets and flatten slightly if desired.
- Bake one sheet at a time for 8–10 minutes, until edges are set and centers still look soft.
- Let cookies rest on the pan before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
Notes
I’ve tested this recipe over rainy afternoons and sunny weekends. One tip: if your kitchen is too warm, dough can get greasy—chill your mixer bowl for 10 minutes or refrigerate the dough for a short burst. Also, don’t skip the parchment paper—it helps with even baking.
