Sour Cream Chocolate Chip Cookies 
Close your eyes and have a bite. Sour Cream Chocolate Chip Cookies WILL satisfy those sweet chocolate cravings. They're lighter in appearance because the recipe calls for white sugar instead of brown sugar, and the sour cream helps, too. Are you worried that you may be eating sour cookies? Don't be. We ate the dough unbaked and baked and NO ONE knew about the sour cream, until I told them.
HERE'S ALL THERE'S TO IT
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 egg
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups mini-chocolate chips.
Heat oven to 350ºF.
Beat sugar, sour cream, butter, vanilla and egg in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed, or mix by hand. Stir in flour, baking soda, salt and chocolate chips.
Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls about 2 inches apart onto greased cookie sheet. Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until set and just beginning to brown. Cool 1 to 2 minutes before removing. Transfer to a wire rack for complete cooling.
All you need now is a glass of milk or a scoop of vanilla ice cream 
I love soft chocolate chip cookies, such as these made with sour cream or those that include a package of instant pudding. They are a great change of pace from chewy chocolate chippers
I like to add a little bit of mint extract to the dough to make soft mint chocolate chip cookies too.
Mmm…mint. My favorite ice cream is Mint Chocolate Chip.
These are fabulous cookies. Made them to freeze to take to a BBQ in a few days. I know they won’t last long!
Thank you Lynn!
Did you freeze the dough or the baked cookies?
hi all(especially Jill) remember me…I made the cookies together with the sangria, waffle, casserole and soup you have sent me….it was damn delicious…..perfect for the start of my holidays
Hi checky! I’m so glad you’re having so much fun with the recipes. It’s wonderful to hear. What holidays are you celebrating?

I froze the baked cookies after taste testing a few myself! They were a huge hit. I will be making them again & again. Thanks for sharing all of your awesome recipes
THANK YOU LYNN! for saying the recipes are awesome. You’re a real sweetheart and you’ve made my day.

These sound really yummy!
I have never made sour cream chocolate chip cookies, but I love the idea of tangy and sweet flavors contrasted. And I bet the sour cream keeps the cookies moist. This looks delicious and yummy!
