Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Dough
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter provides richness and moisture; can be substituted with margarine.
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar adds sweetness and contributes to the chewy texture of these cookies.
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar enhances flavor depth with its molasses content; coconut sugar can be used for a twist.
  • 2 Eggs acts as a binding agent; substitute with 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce or a mashed banana per egg for a vegan option.
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract offers a sweet aroma and elevates the overall flavor.
  • 3 cups All-Purpose Flour provides structure; whole wheat flour is a healthier alternative.
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda helps cookies rise; substitute with baking powder (three times the amount) if necessary.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt balances sweetness and enhances flavors.
For the Mix-ins
  • 1 cup Chocolate Chips adds delightful bursts of chocolatey goodness; mix with white or dark chocolate chips.
  • 1 cup Candy Corn introduces festive color and sweetness to your cookies; swap for other favorite Halloween candies.
