How to Make Chocolate Chip Cookies Without Brown Sugar: A Step-by-Step Guide


Description

Discover how to bake delicious, chewy chocolate chip cookies without using brown sugar. Perfect for when you’re out of brown sugar or just want a lighter, crisper cookie.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup white granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
  • Optional: a pinch of cinnamon or a splash of milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together butter and white sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  6. Fold in chocolate chips evenly.
  7. Scoop dough into 1-inch balls and place on prepared baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are golden brown.
  9. Cool cookies on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

For a touch of caramel flavor, try adding a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup. Chilling the dough can help prevent spreading.
