How to Make Starbucks Cookies at Home

Step 1: Prep the Ingredients

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats for an even bake.

Step 2: Mix the Dough

1. In a large bowl, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
2. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract.
3. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until combined.

Step 3: Add the Chocolate Chips

Gently fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they’re evenly distributed.

Step 4: Shape and Bake

Scoop the dough using a tablespoon or cookie scoop. Place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly underbaked.

Step 5: Cool and Enjoy

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Pro Tips for Perfect Starbucks Cookies

• Use high-quality butter and chocolate chips for the best flavor.
• For a deeper caramel taste, use dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar.
• Slightly underbake the cookies for a chewier texture, as they will continue to cook on the hot baking sheet.
• If you like nuts, consider adding ½ cup of chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch.
