Step By Step Photo Instructions:
Prep:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F or 180 degrees C for at least 10 minutes.
- Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or just spray with nonstick spray.
1) Take dry ingredients (all-purpose flour, salt, and baking soda) in a bowl. Whisk it till they incorporated and keep it aside.
2) Take soften butter in another bowl. Beat it with wire whisk or by electric mixer till it becomes creamy and smooth.
3) Then add both sugars (granulated and brown sugar).
4) Again beat till it becomes fluffy (about 2 minutes).
5) Then add vanilla extract and milk. Whisk till it gets incorporated.
6) Add dry ingredients.
7) Beat it until incorporated. You may need to switch to spatula half way through mixing.
8) Add chocolate chips. And fold them in. If the dough looks soft and sticky than chill it into the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
9) Now make 1-inch size balls from chilled cookie dough. Place on the cookie sheet a few inches apart from each other, because they will spread as bake.
UPDATE: Flatten is slightly using back of glass or bowl or use your fingers. Many readers have a problem that their cookies did not flatten while baking and stays mushroom-like dome-shaped. So they flattened the cookies slightly before baking and worked for them perfectly (see the discussion in comments below).
10) Bake them for 10-12 minutes in preheated oven or until the edges are become golden brown.
11) Let it cool into the sheet for 5 minutes. After that, remove it to the cooling rack to cool completely.

FAQ
After having a bite of this cookie, you won't realize that these are eggless. I have tried, tasted cookies with eggs, so I can say that these eggless cookies are the same as made with eggs. I have tried many different ways but this recipe works just perfect and makes the best homemade chocolate chip cookies.
Personally, I have not tried. But many readers have tried making it vegan by substituting the butter with vegan butter and milk with non-dairy milk. Of course, they used vegan chocolate chips.

Just made these and am so excited! They smell WONDERFUL!
Yay!! let me know how you like it.
These cookies always come dence and i can tell immediately when looking at the flour that it is way too crumbly. I have also seen a lot of comments about this. Maybe change the amount of milk to a bit more?
I added a little extra milk and it turned out great 😀
yes that can happen. Everyone measures flour differently and that may result into dry dough. Adding little more liquid, this can be fixed.
Many of the people in the comments including me agree that the cookie dough is too dry.
After adding 1 cup of flour, it was already too much. I ended up adding ~1 tsp of butter and ~1 tsp of milk and it came out perfect. Alternatively, you could add less flour. I would start at 3/4 cups and add more flour if needed.
I also added more salt. I used salted butter and I added ~1/4 tsp of salt as well as a small sprinkling on all the cookies before baking.
I found the cookies to be a perfect level of sweetness, not too sweet but not too little either. If you like more sugary cookies, I would add 1/4 cup to 1 cup (max) more sugar. (The ratio of most cookies is 1/2 cup of butter : 1 cup sugar)
I baked it at 350F for 10 mins.
This also makes a small batch in my opinion. Most recipes are larger. If you are making it for more than 3 people, I would double it.
My adjusted recipe:
▢1 cup All-purpose flour
▢½ teaspoon Baking soda
▢¼ teaspoon Salt
▢½ cup + 1 teaspoon Salted butter, room temperature
▢¼ cup White granulated sugar
▢¼ cup Brown sugar
▢½ teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
▢2 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon Milk
▢½ cup Chocolate chips
