These take literally five minutes or less to mix up. You start with melted butter, brown sugar, vanilla, and one egg that you stir together before adding in some flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
And then there are of course plenty of chocolate chips. It’s closer to the consistency of cake batter than cookie dough, so there’s no dough to scoop or divide – you just pour it into a baking pan and maybe smooth it out a bit with a spatula if you need to.
Twenty minutes or so in the oven and you’re ready to indulge. You can wait for them to set up a bit into something sliceable, but a big scoop of sweet gooeyness in a bowl is more my style.
With a little scoop of vanilla, these were heavenly right out of the oven. They’re so incredibly quick and easy to make, and their finished texture is fudgy and chewy and full of buttery flavor and melty chocolate. I’ll definitely be turning to these again and again when we need a quick-fix dessert!
