Melt & Mingle Chocolate Chip Cookie

Ingredients:

• 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

• 1 tsp baking powder

• 1 tsp baking soda

• ¾ cup brown sugar (packed)

• ¼ cup granulated sugar

• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened

• 2 organic eggs

• 1 tbsp vanilla bean paste

• ¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks

• ¾ cup milk chocolate chips or chunks

Instructions:

1. Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Set aside.

3. Cream Butter & Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy (about 2–3 minutes).

4. Add Eggs & Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla bean paste, mixing until well combined.

5. Combine Wet & Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Don’t overmix.

6. Fold in the Chocolate: Gently fold in the semi-sweet and milk chocolate chips or chunks.

7. Scoop & Bake: Scoop dough by rounded tablespoons (or use a cookie scoop) onto your prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

8. Bake: Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are just set.

9. Cool & Enjoy: Let cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Or... sneak one warm!
