Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan, lining the bottom with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar. Beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add one large egg at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Transfer the cookie dough to the prepared cake pan and press it evenly into the bottom.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until the edges are lightly golden brown and the center is slightly soft.
- Let the cookie cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before transferring it to cool completely.

Keywords: Ensure your butter and eggs are at room temperature for better emulsification. Don't overbake; a slightly underbaked center is preferred for a chewy texture.
