Indulge in the perfect combination of crispy cookie cups filled with gooey chocolate chips. This recipe elevates the classic chocolate chip cookie into a delightful handheld treat that will satisfy all your sweet cravings.
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and greasing a muffin tin. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Scoop the dough into the prepared muffin tin, pressing it down slightly to form cups. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Let the cookie cups cool before removing them from the tin.
