Galletas De Chocolate Chip (Cookies)
Description
Galletas De Chocolate Chip (Cookies) are made from a traditional cookie dough combining all-purpose flour, kosher salt, and baking soda for structure and leavening. The dough is enriched with unsalted butter and a combination of dark brown sugar and granulated sugar, which add moisture and sweetness. Eggs and pure vanilla extract provide richness and aroma. Semisweet chocolate chips offer pockets of melty chocolate. The dough is chilled for at least two hours to improve texture and manage spreading. Baking at 350°F results in golden-brown edges with a soft interior. These cookies fit well as a homemade treat or afternoon snack.
Once baked, cookies should be cooled on parchment-lined sheets to maintain their shape and texture. The recipe suggests spacing dough balls about 1 inch apart to allow for proper spreading. The cookies’ balance of crunchy edges and chewy middle highlights the care taken in chilling and baking time. These cookies are versatile and can be paired with milk, coffee, or tea.
The notes recommend freezing either the dough or the baked cookies for up to 3 to 4 weeks, wrapped tightly to prevent freezer burn. This makes it convenient to prepare batches ahead of time and thaw when desired.
Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour 270g
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup butter soft but cool, unsalted, 8 oz (2 sticks
- 1 cup dark brown sugar firmly packed, 213g
- ½ cup granulated sugar 100g
- 2 egg large
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract pure
- 2 ⅔ cups semisweet chocolate chips 12 oz
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk the flour, salt, and baking soda together and set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugars together until smooth and creamy.
- Scrape down the sides of bowl and add the eggs, one at a time, beating until each is incorporated. The mixture will look light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and beat for another 30 seconds.
- Add half of the flour mixture and mix for 15 seconds. Add the remaining flour mixture and beat until just incorporated.
- Using a spatula or wooden spoon, fold in the chocolate chips.
- Cover the bowl tightly and put in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before baking.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (177c). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Arrange 1 ½ inch dough balls, about 1 inch apart on prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for about 10 to 12 minutes, rotating the baking sheets once during the cooking time, until the edges of the cookies are golden brown and the tops just start to darken.
- Remove the baking sheets from the oven and cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Use a spatula to transfer the individual cookies to the rack to cool completely (although they are delicious warm!).
- The cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days or 3 to 4 weeks in the freezer.
Notes
- Chill the cookie dough for at least two hours before baking to enhance texture and flavor.
- Freeze cookie dough or baked cookies tightly wrapped for up to 3 to 4 weeks to maintain freshness.
- Space dough balls about 1 inch apart on the baking sheet to allow cookies to spread evenly.
