Ask AI: What should I bake for my family today

You can bake a classic chocolate chip cookie for your family today. It's a crowd-pleaser and loved by people of all ages. Here's a simple recipe for you: Ingredients: - 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened - 1 cup granulated sugar - 1 cup packed brown sugar - 2 large eggs - 2 teaspoons vanilla extract - 3 cups all-purpose flour - 1 teaspoon baking soda - 1/2 teaspoon baking powder - 1/2 teaspoon salt - 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips Instructions: 1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. 2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. 3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract. 4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. 5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. 6. Stir in the chocolate chips. 7. Use a cookie scoop or spoon to drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Space the dough balls about 2 inches apart. 8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are slightly golden brown. The centers may look slightly underbaked – that's okay, as they'll continue to cook on the baking sheet. 9. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy the warm and delicious chocolate chip cookies with your family!
