Description
These Crumbl inspired chocolate chip cookies are oversized, gooey in the center, crisp on the edges, and loaded with melty chocolate. A homemade version of the popular bakery treat, ready in under 30 minutes.
Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks
Flaky sea salt for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips or chunks until evenly distributed.
- Use a large cookie scoop or 1/4 cup measure to portion dough into balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Gently press the tops of the dough balls to flatten slightly before baking.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are golden and the centers look slightly underbaked.
- Optional: Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top while cookies are still warm.
- Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
Swap semi-sweet chocolate with dark chocolate for a deeper cocoa flavor.
Add chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch.
Press a few extra chocolate chips on top of the dough balls before baking for an attractive finish.
Mix in a teaspoon of espresso powder to enhance the chocolate flavor.
For smaller cookies, reduce dough portion size and bake for 8–10 minutes.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or freeze for longer storage.
