Self-rising flour chocolate chip cookies

These self-rising flour chocolate chip cookies are soft, chewy, and loaded with chocolate chips, making them one of the easiest homemade cookie recipes you'll ever bake.

Servings 16 cookies

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups self-rising flour
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line prepared baking sheets with parchment paper.

  2. In a large bowl or bowl of a stand mixer, beat the softened butter, dark brown sugar, and white sugar until light and creamy.

  3. Add the large egg and teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until fully incorporated.

  4. Add the self-rising flour and stir until a soft cookie dough forms. Be careful not to overmix the dry ingredients.

  5. Fold in the chocolate chips. Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or white chocolate chips all work well. You can also add nuts if desired.

  6. Cover the bowl and place the cookie dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Do not skip this step. Chilling improves the chewiness, helps the cookies bake thicker, and develops the best flavor.

  7. Use a cookie scoop to portion the dough into cookie dough balls. Place the balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie.

  8. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still appear slightly soft.

  9. Allow the cookies to rest on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely
