2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour gives the cookies their perfect structure and chewiness.
1 teaspoon baking soda adds lightness, helping the cookies rise beautifully.
½ teaspoon salt enhances all the sweet flavors, balancing the taste perfectly.
¾ cup unsalted butter choose room temperature butter for the best creamy texture.
½ cup brown sugar adds moisture and a rich, caramel flavor.
½ cup granulated sugar contributes sweetness and helps achieve a nice golden color.
2 large eggs ensure they’re at room temperature for even mixing.
2 teaspoons vanilla extract elevates the flavor profile with its warm notes.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream together ¾ cup of unsalted butter, ½ cup brown sugar, and ½ cup granulated sugar in a mixing bowl for about 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
Add 2 large eggs, one at a time, along with 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract, blending until smooth.
Whisk together 2 ¼ cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and ½ teaspoon of salt in a separate bowl, then gradually mix into your wet ingredients.
Fold in 1 cup of chopped Kit Kat bars gently.
Scoop the dough onto your prepared baking sheets using a tablespoon, spacing them about two inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still soft.

These cookies should be golden around the edges but still soft in the middle for that perfect chewy bite.
