Chocolate Chip Cookies without Brown Sugar
These chocolate chip cookies without brown sugar are just what you need when you're craving cookies, but you don't have brown sugar on hand!
Ingredients
- 180 g (1 ½ cups) all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 135 g (⅔) granulated sugar
- 170 g (¾ cup) unsalted butter, 1 ½ sticks, room temp
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 egg, room temp
- 113 g (4 oz) roughly chopped chocolate, + more for topping
- flaky sea salt
Instructions
- In a small bowl combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugar on high speed for 2-3 minutes.
- Mix in the egg and vanilla until fully combined.
- Scrape down the bowl, then add in the dry ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined.
- Lastly, fold in the chocolate.
- Portion the cookie dough with a 1 tablespoon cookie scoop and place them on one small baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Freeze the cookie dough for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place the frozen cookie dough on a parchment lined baking sheet spaced about 2 inches apart. Top each with more chocolate.
- Bake the cookies for about 12-14 minutes until the edges are golden.
- Once the cookies are done baking, immediately use a large cookie cutter to push the edges in and shape the cookies into perfect circles.
- Allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet.
- Top with flaky sea salt and enjoy!
Notes
- Do not skip the freeze time! It is essential to achieve a thicker cookie with crisp, golden edges and soft centers.
- Store these cookies in an air-tight container for up to 3 days. Alternatively, you can freeze the portioned cookie dough or the baked cookies for up to three months.
