Instructions
Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients
Collect all your ingredients: flour, sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Don’t forget your favorite mix-ins like chocolate chips or nuts!
Step 2: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures your cookies bake evenly and come out perfectly golden.
Step 3: Cream the Butter and Sugars
In a large bowl, beat softened butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes.
Step 4: Add Eggs and Vanilla
Crack in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract for that delightful aroma!
Step 5: Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. This helps distribute the leavening agents evenly.
Step 6: Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients
Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Don’t overmix; a few lumps are okay!
Step 7: Fold in Mix-Ins
Gently fold in your favorite mix-ins like chocolate chips, nuts, or sprinkles. Get creative and make it your own!
Step 8: Scoop the Dough
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop generous balls of dough onto a lined baking sheet. Leave space between each cookie for spreading.
Step 9: Bake the Cookies
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked; that’s perfect!
Step 10: Cool and Enjoy!
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Enjoy your warm, gooey Crumbl cookies!
