Ingredients
  

Cookie Ingredients
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups chocolate chips
Decoration Ingredients
  • 1 cup frosting (for decoration)
  • Graduation-themed decorations (optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 13×9-inch baking pan.
  2. In a bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually blend in the dry ingredients, and then fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  6. Spread the cookie dough evenly into the prepared baking pan.
Baking
  1. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  2. Let it cool completely before frosting to prevent the icing from melting.
  3. Decorate with frosting and graduation-themed decorations as desired, personalizing it for your graduate's big day.

Notes

Add nuts for crunch, use flavored chips, experiment with alternative frostings, try layered cakes, and make dietary adjustments for gluten-free or vegan options.
