Ingredients

1 cup cashew butter

¾ cup granulated sugar

1 large egg

½ teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon kosher salt

1 cup milk chocolate chips

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cashew butter, granulated sugar, egg, baking soda, and kosher salt. Stir until well blended and smooth.

  3. Fold the milk chocolate chips into the batter until evenly distributed.

  4. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

  5. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. The cookies may appear slightly soft in the middle, which is normal.

  6. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to rest on the hot sheet for 3-5 minutes to firm up slightly.

  7. Transfer the cookies to a wire cooling rack. Enjoy them while still warm and chewy, or allow them to cool completely for a firmer texture.

Cashew butter is stocked at most major Charlotte chains including Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Kroger, and Walmart, so no special trip is needed. The six-ingredient formula keeps costs low—expect roughly $1.25 to $1.50 per cookie or $0.12 to $0.15 per serving across the batch, driven mainly by cashew butter quality. The stated 20 minutes is honest if you're using store-bought cashew butter; the real constraint is oven time, which means you're looking at active prep of about 5 minutes followed by baking. These cookies are straightforward enough for a weeknight and hold well for several days, though they're best eaten fresh and don't freeze especially well. The simplicity and shelf stability make this a solid repeat recipe, with the only caveat being that cashew butter quality varies widely—budget for a decent jar, not the cheapest option, if you want the cookies to taste like more than plain sugar.
