Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter softened to a creamy consistency
  • 1 cup dark brown sugar tightly packed
  • 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
  • Optional: 1 cup chopped nuts such as walnuts or pecans

Instructions
 

Step 1: Preheat and Prep

  • First, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Meanwhile, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients

  • In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and sea salt. Set it aside for later.

Step 3: Cream Butter and Sugars

  • In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, dark brown sugar, and white granulated sugar until you get a smooth, fluffy mixture. This should take about 3-4 minutes of mixing.

Step 4: Add Wet Ingredients

  • Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Make sure each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. Add the pure vanilla extract and mix well.

Step 5: Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients

  • Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Stir just enough to combine. Overmixing can make the cookies tough.

Step 6: Fold in Extras

  • Gently fold in the semisweet chocolate chips, cinnamon, mini marshmallows, and chopped nuts if you’re using them.

Step 7: Scoop and Bake

  • Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Space the cookies about 2 inches apart. Bake for 9-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.

Step 8: Cool Down

  • Allow the cookies to cool on the sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use Room Temperature Ingredients: This ensures even mixing and the perfect texture.
  • Chill the Dough: For at least 30 minutes before baking. This helps the flavors meld and prevents excessive spreading.
  • Don’t Overmix: Overmixing can make your cookies tough and dry.
  • Use Quality Chocolate: It makes a world of difference. Opt for good-quality semisweet chocolate chips.
  • Watch the Oven: Since all ovens are different, keep an eye on your first batch to prevent overbaking.
