Ingredients

Scale
  • ¾ cup (170 g) unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup (150 g) brown sugar
  • ¼ cup (50 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) Baileys Irish Cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 ¼ cups (280 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups (270 g) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 ¼ cups (280 g) of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and ½ teaspoon of salt.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat ¾ cup (170 g) of softened unsalted butter, ¾ cup (150 g) of brown sugar, and ¼ cup (50 g) of granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Beat in 1 large egg, ¼ cup (60 ml) Baileys Irish Cream, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Use a spatula to gently fold in 1 ½ cups (270 g) of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  7. Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly underbaked.
  9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

[‘Ensure butter and egg are at room temperature for better texture.’, ‘Do not overmix the dough to avoid dense cookies.’, ‘Chill the dough for 30 minutes for thicker cookies.’, ‘Use quality chocolate for the best flavor.’, ‘Cookies will continue to set as they cool after baking.’]
