Classic Hershey’s Chocolate Chip Cookies are a beloved treat that combines rich, creamy chocolate with a soft, chewy cookie base. Perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a holiday gathering or simply a snack at home, these cookies are easy to make and certain to please everyone, especially kids.

Cooking Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This guarantees that your cookies will bake evenly once you place them in the oven.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisk the ingredients together to ensure they are well mixed and there are no lumps. Set this bowl aside.
3. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Beat the mixture on medium speed until it becomes light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Crack the two large eggs into the butter-sugar mixture and add the vanilla extract. Beat the mixture again on medium speed until everything is well combined and smooth.
5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture (flour, baking soda, and salt) into the wet mixture. Mix on low speed until just combined. Avoid over-mixing, as this can make the cookies tough.
6. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Using a spatula or wooden spoon, gently fold the Hershey’s Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips into the cookie dough. Make sure the chips are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
7. Scoop the Dough: Using a cookie scoop or two tablespoons, scoop out portions of dough and place them onto ungreased or parchment-lined baking sheets. Leave about 2 inches of space between each cookie to allow for spreading during baking.
8. Bake the Cookies: Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for about 9 to 11 minutes or until the edges of the cookies are lightly browned but the centers remain soft.
9. Cool the Cookies: Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
10. Enjoy: Serve your delicious Hershey’s Chocolate Chip Cookies warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for future snacking!
