Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups chocolate chips

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the sour cream and vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still appear slightly soft, but they will firm up as the cookies cool.
  8. Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
  9. Enjoy these delicious sour cream chocolate chip cookies with a glass of milk or share them with your friends and family!
