To make Costco chocolate chip cookies, you’ll need flour, sugar, butter, eggs, vanilla, baking soda, salt, and, of course, chocolate chips. Follow a simple mixing process and bake at 350°F for about 10-12 minutes.
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a large bowl, cream together softened butter and sugars until light and fluffy. This step is crucial for getting that nice texture.
Next, beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla extract. Make sure everything is well-combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
Now it’s time to fold in the chocolate chips. Use a spatula to get an even distribution throughout the dough.
Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Leave some space between them, as they will spread while baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
That’s it! Enjoy your delicious homemade Costco-style chocolate chip cookies.
