Ingredients
Scale
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Mix in vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough.
- Drop dough by tablespoonfuls onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are still soft.
- Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely and stay chewy.
Notes
- For extra flavor, consider adding toasted nuts or a sprinkle of sea salt.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes to enhance chewiness.
- Use high-quality vanilla extract for the best taste.
