Ingredients
  

For the Cookies
  • 1 cup unsalted butter Creates a rich and buttery flavor; substitute with margarine if preferred.
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar Adds sweetness and helps achieve a crispy texture; no substitutions necessary.
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar Provides moisture and a chewy texture; can replace with additional granulated sugar in a pinch.
  • 2 large eggs Binds the ingredients together and contributes to the cookie's structure; substitute each egg with 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce if needed.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Enhances flavor with a sweet aroma; no substitutions recommended.
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour Forms the base of the cookie; ensure it’s properly measured for best results.
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda Helps cookies rise to the desired fluffiness; can substitute with baking powder (use 3 times the amount) if needed.
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt Balances sweetness and enhances overall flavor; no substitutions necessary.
  • 1 cup chocolate chips Adds a rich chocolate flavor; mix and match with dark, white, or milk chocolate chips.
  • 1 cup candy corn For a festive touch; feel free to swap with other seasonal candies or nuts.
For Topping (Optional)
