Discover the secret to baking perfect high altitude chocolate chip cookies with this detailed guide. Achieve soft and chewy cookies, even at elevations over 3,000 feet, with the right adjustments to your recipe.

  • Total Time: 27 minutes
  • Yield: 24 cookies 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 cups chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Gather all ingredients at room temperature for best results.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in vanilla extract and eggs until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually fold this dry mixture into the wet ingredients until combined, then fold in the chocolate chips.
  4. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop tablespoon-sized dough portions onto a lined baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are lightly golden, then cool on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
  • For longer storage, freeze cookies for up to three months with parchment paper layers to prevent sticking.
  • These cookies are fantastic served warm with vanilla ice cream or alongside coffee or milk.
