What You’ll Need

Here are the ingredients you’ll need to make this fantastic cookie recipe. See the recipe card at the bottom of the post for full instructions and details.

This recipe has some special ingredients that make these cookies AMAZING. You’ll need to brown your stick of butter and let it cool slightly before getting started with your cookie recipe. See my post on How To Brown Butter for full details. It’s simple to do and it brings such an amazing flavor to your cookies.

How To Make The BEST Chocolate Chip Cookies

Preheat Oven to 350 Degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or use a silpat liner.

Brown The Butter. To brown butter, melt stick of butter in small saucepan over medium low heat. Let cook and bubble while swirling pan often, until brown bits start forming on bottom of pan. When butter turns a golden brown color, transfer to a heat proof bowl and let cool for 10-15 minutes.

Combine Cream Cheese and Brown Butter. Place cooled brown butter and cream cheese into a large mixing bowl. Stir until well combined and creamy.

What If I Forget To Soften My Cream Cheese?

If you forget to soften your cream cheese in advance, place your block of cream cheese in the oven on “warm” for about 10-15 minutes. That does the trick.

Add Brown Sugar, Egg and Vanilla. Stir in brown sugar and sugar mixing until well combined. Add egg and vanilla mixing well.

Add Dry Ingredients. Slowly add flour, malted milk, baking soda, and salt. Stir until just combined.

Chocolate and Oreo Cookies. Add chocolate and Oreo cookies.

Note: You can use chocolate chips or chunk your own chocolate like I’ve done here. I love the bloc of chocolate you can get at Trader Joe’s. It’s about $4.99 and lasts me for a long time. I like that the chocolate stays gooey for a while when baked with these chunks.

Combine All Ingredients. Give all of the ingredients a good mix. This dough is DANGEROUS. Fair warning.

Scoop Cookie Dough Onto Baking Sheet. With a medium cookie scoop, scoop dough onto prepared baking sheet placing 1 inch apart.

Bake. Bake cookies for 12-14 minutes, until baked through. Remove and let cool before transferring. Serve room temperature.

Note: Make your cookies as large as you’d like. I used a medium cookie scoop and did a heaping scoop so decided to just bake 6 at a time. Place dough 1 inch apart from each other. Bake for 12-14 minutes, until baked through. Let cool before transferring.

You get these gorgeous cookies with the RICH flavor and perfect texture. Excited for you to try these.

That chocolate! Enjoy friends.
