Sheet pan chocolate chip cookies

 Our best bites 

Ingredients

  • 3 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp table salt
  • 1 cup butter melted and cooled slightly
  •  cups brown sugar packed
  • ¾ cups white sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups chocolate chips any kind you like, or a mix
  • ½ cup toffee bits optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with foil and lightly spray the bottom with cooking spray.  Set aside.
  • Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl and whisk to combine.  Set aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, thoroughly combine brown sugar, white sugar, and melted butter.  Add eggs, one at a time, stirring between each addition, and vanilla.  Add dry ingredients a little at a time until incorporated. Stir in chocolate chips (save a few for the top if desired).  Once dough is thoroughly mixed, press into the prepared baking pan.
  • Bake for about 25 minutes (all ovens are different, set timer for 20 minutes to start checking on them.  They will bake for 20-30 minutes, but some readers have reported they took longer).  Remove from oven when edges are golden brown and center appears set, but still soft.  Cool completely to room temperature and then cut into squares. 
    Baking Note: Be aware that this is essentially a giant single cookie. If you cut them while they're hot and grab the center piece, it will be like pulling the center of a hot cookie- totally goo! Delicious goo, but goo. This doesn't not mean they aren't cooked, they just need to cool. I prefer to cool completely- even overnight is great. Once cool the center will be deliciously doughy.
