1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, cream together 1/2 cup of softened butter and 1/2 cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1 egg, mixing until well combined.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, and a pinch of salt.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
6. Fold in 1 cup of chocolate chips (or any mix-ins of your choice like nuts or dried fruit).
7. Use a cookie scoop to drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Enjoy your freshly baked cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite hot beverage!
