Ingredients

Scale

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar

  9. Let the cup cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For softer cup cookies, bake for a shorter time.
  • For crispier cup cookies, bake for a longer time.
  • You can substitute chocolate chips with other mix-ins like nuts or dried fruit.
  • Ensure your butter is at room temperature for best creaming results.
  • These cup cookies are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
