No vanilla, no baking soda, no creaming butter and sugar for five minutes. Just a bowl, a spoon, and chewy cookies on a sheet pan in twenty minutes. Ugly on paper. Beautiful on a plate.

What You Need

Serves
24
  • 1 cup salted butter, melted
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • 2 cups chocolate chips

How to Make It

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Whisk melted butter and brown sugar in a bowl until smooth. Whisk in eggs until glossy.

  2. 2

    Stir in self-rising flour until just combined — do not overmix. Fold in chocolate chips.

  3. 3

    Scoop heaping tablespoons onto a parchment-lined sheet, 2 inches apart. Bake 11–13 minutes until the edges are set but the centers still look underdone. Let cool on the pan 5 minutes before moving.
