BEST Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe ~ Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Freezer Recipe
If you have been following along this week then you know that I’ve been sharing all of my favorite freezer meal recipes with you. If you have missed my previous posts this week then be sure to check out all of my posts on freezer cooking including my getting started freezer cooking post!
This chocolate chip cookie recipe is my absolute favorite. I’ve tried MANY recipes in search of the best chocolate chip cookies recipe that were crunchy on the outside and chewy in the middle. I’ve finally perfected it AND they make a great chocolate chip cookie dough freezer recipe too! Just pop them out of the freezer, as many as you want to eat at a time, and bake them up. You can always have hot, fresh chocolate chip cookies at the ready!
BEST Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe ~ Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Freezer Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 C Flour
- 1/2 Tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 Tsp Salt
- 3/4 C Melted Unsalted Butter
- 1 C Brown Sugar
- 1/2 C White Sugar
- 1 Tbsp Vanilla
- 1 Egg
- 1 Egg Yolk
- 2 C Chocolate Chips
Instructions
- In a mixer or medium mixing bowl beat eggs then add sugars, butter, vanilla, baking soda, salt and flour.
- Mix until combined.
- Add chocolate chips and stir in by hand.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Form balls with your hands or use a cookie dropper.
- Bake at 325 degrees for 10-14 min until golden brown on edges.
- For best results I bake them on parchment paper.
- Store in a glass covered dish to keep them crisp and chewy!
- If freezing dough:
- Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and drop dough balls onto sheet.
- Freeze dough on the cookie sheet in the freezer until completely frozen.
- Once completely frozen remove balls from cookie sheet and put into a gallon freezer bag.
- When you freeze them this way and store in a bag aftwerwards it keeps them from sticking together and allows you to pull out as many or as few as you want at one time!
- Remove balls from the freezer and bake according to directions above. No need to thaw them, cook straight from the freezer. Cooking time may need to be lengthened when dough is frozen.

Chocolate and i are best friends. Scrumptious recipe!
I love this because I don’t always make use of all the dough when I mix up a batch. Thank you.
Thanks so much for the recipe. I need these tonight!

I made a similar recipe over the weekend – only difference in my recipe is that I decided to add caramel pieces and sea salt to make salted caramel chocolate chip cookies. And I agree, they are the best chocolate chip cookies. I am not a fan of sweets (love making them, just don’t eat them) and these were even addicting to ME lol.
Oh I love your idea! I’ll have to try adding the caramel and sea salt next time! YUM!
Time to get baking!
I am sooo going to make these. My girls love cookies fresh from the oven but my husband, who has no willpower, doesn’t like to have a whole batch in the house. This way, I can bake just a few at a time!
Thanks so much for this recipe! I’m planning on making a batch of these soon to keep in our freezer! It will be great to have these pre-made when we want a quick homemade dessert!
Great idea, I have been looking for good freezer recipes that will make the evening rush easier.
