Begin by making sure the Butter and Egg have come to room temperature. Allow both ingredients to sit on the counter for 1 hour.

In a mixing large bowl using a hand mixer combine softened butter and granulated sugar and cream for 2-3 minutes. The butter and sugar will turn light and fluffy.

Add Vegetable Oil and continue to cream for an additional 2-3 minutes. It's easiest to start on a low speed and gradually increase speed as ingredients blend together.

Once mixed together add egg and vanilla extract and blend until combined

In a separate bowl combine dry ingredients of All Purpose Flour, Cream of Tartar, Baking Soda and salt and stir to combine. Then gradually add a little at a time to butter mixture making sure ingredients are fully combined before adding more.

Hand stir Chocolate Chips into cookie dough. It's fun to mix chips. Try a Semi Sweet and White Chocolate or even use regular size chips and Mini Chips.

Scoop cookie dough on baking sheets lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven to 350 degrees.

Make sure to place cookie dough scoops 2 inches apart for baking.

Bake for 7-9 minutes or until edges are just lightly golden. No need to over bake. Allow cookies to sit on cookie sheet for a minute or two and then move to cooling rack to fully cool.

Store or Freeze

Cookies are best enjoyed within 2-4 days but will stay fresh for up to a week when properly stored in an airtight container at room temperature.

Freeze. Cookies can be frozen for up to 3 months. Wrap cookies in plastic wrap and store in a sealed container.

Cookie Dough. Cookie Dough can also be frozen and baked when you are ready to eat. Scoop dough onto a cookie sheet and freeze until firm. Then remove cookie dough balls and place in ZipLoc bag and freeze for up to 3 months.

To Bake Frozen Cookie Dough. Bake at 350 degrees and add a couple extra minutes. Bake for 9-11 minutes or until edges are set and center isn't glossy.

Quick Tips:

Small Batch Recipe. Chocolate Chip Cookies no Brown Sugar Recipe makes 24 cookies

Cookie Scoop. Using a cookie scoop will make uniform sized cookies. I also find it easy to drop cookies on cookie sheet. I use a medium cookie scoop size #24

Don't Over Bake. I like to pull cookies out of the oven when the edges are set, before the edges turn brown. This will make a nice soft cookie.

Parchment Paper. Line baking sheet with parchment paper to easily lift cookies off baking sheet and for easy clean up. Or grease cookie sheet.

Add Extra Chips. Press extra chocolate chips on top of cookie dough prior to baking. Everyone loves a few extra chips.

How to measure Flour

Ideally a kitchen scale is the best way to measure flour and other ingredients when baking. Baking is truly a science and it's so important to have the perfect balance of ingredients to ensure a perfect cookie.

If you do not have a kitchen scale, let me share with you how to best measure Flour. Lift and stir flour in the bag or storage container incorporating air into the flour. Then carefully take spoonful of flour and gently place it in measuring cup.

Continue spooning and lifting flour into measuring cup until its overfull. Then using the back of a knife, scrape the top level. Do not shake or press ingredients down. Just carefully scrape knife across top of cup removing excess. This is the best way to measure flour without a kitchen scale.
