Ingredients

Main Ingredients

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

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the cookies evenly.
  2. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy for the perfect texture.
  3. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract, ensuring everything is combined well.
  4. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt to distribute the leavening agent and salt evenly.
  5. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined to avoid overworking the dough.
  6. Fold in Mix-ins: Gently fold in the chocolate chips and candy corn, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.
  7. Scoop Dough: Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
  9. Cool Cookies: Remove cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use room temperature butter for easier creaming and better texture.
  • For crispier cookies, bake an additional 1-2 minutes, but watch closely to avoid burning.
  • Substitute candy corn with seasonal colored candies if desired.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
