No butter chocolate chip cookies are made using oil instead of butter to keep them extra moist and chewy, but still loaded with good flavor.

Ingredients

  • ½ cupoil (i used coconut, but vegetable would work great too)
  • ¾ cupbrown sugar
  • ¼ cupgranulated sugar
  • 1 largeegg (room temp)
  • 1 largeegg yolk (room temp)
  • 2 tspvanilla
  • 1 tspbaking soda
  • ½ tspsalt
  • 1 ¾ cupall-purpose flour
  • 1 cupchocolate chips
  • flaked salt to top

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

  2. 2

    Place the oil and sugars in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add egg and yolk one at a time, mix until smooth on low speed. Beat in vanilla.

  4. 4

    Slowly mix in dry ingredients, baking soda, salt and flour, being careful not to over mix. I usually stop when I still have some flour remnants around the bowl.

  5. 5

    Add chocolate chips and fold into the dough.

  6. 6

    Scoop the dough into desired size cookie balls. I like to use a 3 tbsp scoop for these. Place 6-8 on baking sheet so they don't run into each other. Top with flaked salt.

  7. 7

    Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown.
