Vanilla Cookies
Vanilla Cookies are moist, chewy, and full of creamy vanilla flavor. A delicious twist on the classic chocolate chip cookie!
Servings: 60 cookies
Calories: 116kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter (2 cubes)
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 2 eggs
- 3 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 12 ounces vanilla chips (white chocolate chips)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Beat the butter and sugars together in a large bowl or electric mixer.
- Add almond extract, vanilla and eggs. Mix well.
- Gradually mix in flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Slowly stir in vanilla chips.
- Roll dough into walnut-sized balls or use a cookie scoop and place on an ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes or until just starting to lightly brown on top.
- Makes approximately 5 dozen cookies.
Notes
- Grease baking sheets with cooking spray or line the sheets with parchment paper so the cookies don't stick.
- Use a cookie scoop to make sure the cookies are all the same size. That way they'll all bake up evenly.
- One of the biggest secrets to soft and chewy cookies is the baking time. I always bake my cookies for about nine to eleven minutes, just until the bottom of the cookie is ever so slightly golden.
- Then I take them out and let them cook on the cookie sheet on top of the stove for another two minutes or so.
- Once they're cooled slightly, I put them on a wire rack to finish cooling to room temperature. (or I eat a few while they're still warm and gooey!)
