Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups (333g) salted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup (173g) granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 cups (369g) brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 tbsp vanilla bean paste
Dry Ingredients
- 4 1/2 cups (684g) all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
Add-ins
- 2 cups (400g) guittard milk chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to fully heat while you prepare the dough.
- Cream butter and sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened salted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light in color and has a creamy texture, ensuring the sugars dissolve well into the butter.
- Add eggs and vanilla: Beat in the eggs and vanilla bean paste thoroughly, continuing to mix until the batter looks light and fluffy, which helps create a tender cookie.
- Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add these dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing until just combined to avoid overworking the dough.
- Fold in chocolate chips: Gently fold in the Guittard milk chocolate chips to evenly distribute them throughout the dough without melting them.
- Portion and shape dough: Measure out the dough into 1/2 cup portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then break the ball in half and press the two halves together with the rough edges facing up for the iconic Crumbl cookie appearance. Place 6 cookies on each baking sheet, and optionally press extra chocolate chips onto the tops for added chocolate.
- Bake cookies: Place the trays in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies develop golden-brown edges while remaining soft inside.
- Cool cookies: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 20 minutes to finish setting before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely or serving.
Notes
- Use room temperature butter for easier creaming with sugars.
- Rolling and squishing the dough balls creates the Crumbl signature rustic shape.
- Do not overmix once dry ingredients are added to maintain tender cookies.
- Add extra chocolate chips on top for a more chocolatey bite.
- Cooling on the pan allows cookies to set properly without breaking apart.
