These Chocolate Chip Cookies are soft on the inside and not too crispy on the outside. I find them perfect this way. I guarantee they will be a hit in your home.

These cookies are so delicious and are approved by my Cookie Monster hubby (he is really a snob when it comes to cookies!). I like to bake just a few cookies at the time and keep the rest of the dough in the fridge. This way we can have nice warm fresh cookies every time we want them.

Make Galletas Chispas De Chocolate

Gather all of your ingredients by measuring correctly. Preferably using a scale. First start by getting the flour ready. 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 bowl and add the eggs, one at a time, beating until each is incorporated. The mixture will look light and fluffy.

Bake

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. 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 pans once during the cooking time, until the edges of the cookies are golden brown and the tops just start to darken.
  • Remove the pan 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!).

How to Store

Make sure cookies cool completely before storing.

  • Fridge – Store at room temperature in an airtight container, like Tupperware for up to 3 or 4 days. To prevent the cookies from getting too hard, you may store them with a piece of bread.
  • Freezer – You can freeze your already made chocolate chip cookies or dough for up to 3 to 4 weeks. Just make sure you double plastic wrap them in order to avoid freezer burn.

If you want to freeze the dough, I recommend you freeze it in separate batches for how ever many you like to bake at the time.

  • To Thaw – Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator before using.
