No beating butter, no chilling, and the cookie dough comes together in minutes. This is my go-to, no-easy chewy chocolate chip cookies chocolate chip cookie recipe!

The butter is melted, which is why this recipe is so easy. Granulated sugar sweetens the batter and adds a nice crisp edge and the brown sugar adds some caramel-like flavor and keeps the middles soft and chewy. Unlike the our other chocolate chip cookie recipe, we call for 1 whole egg as well as 1 egg yolk. They also spread the perfect amount. Combine the two mixtures, and then add chocolate.

I love adding big chips or chunks of chocolate. Before baking, sneak a few extra pieces of chocolate into the tops of each dough mound. This way, when they are baked, you will see gooey chocolate on the top of each cookie. You can also freeze the cookie dough. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop out cookie dough mounds onto the baking sheet.
