One Bowl Chocolate Chip Cookies
One Bowl Chocolate Chip CookiesSoft Chocolate Chip Cookies have become my new go to cookies. These full of chocolate chip cookies are gone in minutes.
Over the last few months with all the Christmas Cookies I was making, my daughter was requesting Chocolate Chip Cookies, because apparently her friends and most Italians love them.
And of course I needed them fast. I didn’t have time to make my Mom’s refrigerated Thick Chocolate Chip Cookies so I decided to give her One Bowl Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies a try.
Needless to say they were a big hit, fast and easy and so good.

I know with the start of the New Year everyone or almost everyone is thinking “Diet”. When I first moved to Italy I never heard that word!
Italians just knew how to eat. Lots of veggies and fruits, meat 2 or 3 times a week, with some fish, cheese and eggs thrown in.
One Bowl Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies
And of course your bigger meal is at noon with a light dinner. Dessert once in a while, a cookie or two or a slice of crostata with a cup of coffee or tea in the afternoon.
No fast food, no frozen dinners and lots of homemade. I still like to live like this and I think it is really important.
I don’t believe in following the “new Diet” craze of the moment (unless of course you need to for health reasons). As the Italian says “all in moderation”. So why not have a Chocolate Chip Cookie or two? Enjoy!

Made these cookies this evening. They were delicious! Love a softer cookie. Another great recipe. Thank you.
Rosemary says
Hi Doreen, thanks so much, so glad you enjoyed them. Have a great weekend.
Sam says
Does the butter have to be melted what do i do if i want less cookies
Rosemary says
Hi Sam, the butter should be room temperature, soft but not melted. And since there is only one egg it is hard to half the recipe, although you could but lightly beating the egg and adding half of it along with half the ingredients to make less cookies. Although you could always freeze the cookies to eat later. Hope that helps.
Sam says
thanks this was very helpful the recipe was Delicious and the cookies stayed soft
Elaine says
I really like “one bowl” recipes but I find it does work better if you whisk the dry ingredients together first, then beat the egg and the butter together and fold in. The recipe is great as is though!
Vanessa says
Since we’re on lock down I made them last night. They are really good and not super sweet. Love them.
Rosemary says
Hi Vanessa, thanks so much, glad you enjoyed them.
Erika Marucci says

Thanks!

Rosemary says
Thanks Erika, so glad everyone liked them. 🙂
Judy says
I made these today. I have to admit my butter was frozen so I used 1/2 cup of melted butter. It took longer to bake than listed but that’s on me. They are really good, next time I will make exactly as listed. Thank you for a delish cookie.
Rosemary says
Hi Judy, thanks so much so glad you enjoyed them.
Sameen says
Can I make this exact same recipe, but with regular white sugar instead of brown? Would it still turn out mostly the same? If not, how would it be different?
Rosemary says
Hi Sameen, yes you can substitute white sugar for brown sugar, your cookies will just be a little crispier. Let me know how it goes.
Sarah says
does the recipe call for 1/2 cup of butter or 1 + 1/2 cup?
Rosemary says
Hi Sarah, it’s 1/2 cup of butter. 🙂
Laura says
This recipe is a little befuddling. I made them and tried one, and I can’t really detect any difference, taste and texture wise, to cookies with baking soda. Why is that?
Rosemary says
Hi Laura, well it really shouldn’t effect the taste although baking soda in cookies is used 1. to help make them fluffier and 2. when an acid ingredient (such as yogurt or butter milk) is included. So I guess it’s good no difference was made.
Vicki Skonieczny says
My goodness…what a perfect little bite of heaven! I just made these and they are by far the easiest, tastiest chocolate chip cookie ever. The whole family loved these. So impressed, I’m making them again this Sunday for a football party we’ve been invited to. Thanks for sharing this incredible recipe. I adore your site and have made several of your recipes already and am looking forward to some others. Nothing like good ole’ baking when it’s 22 degrees below zero! Thanks Rosemary!
Rosemary says
Hi Vicki, thanks so much, so glad you and your family enjoyed them. I know -22 is not fun (I was in Toronto the past couple of weeks) so all you can do is bake! Happy New Year.
Lisa Huff says
Love it! I want it all!
Rosemary says
Hi Lisa haha thanks so much.
