Ingredients

Scale
  • 2¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, cream butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
  4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in eggs one at a time, then vanilla extract until just combined.
  5. Combine Ingredients: Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  6. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Using a wooden spoon, gently fold in chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  7. Shape Cookies: Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake: Bake for 9-11 minutes until edges are golden brown but centers look slightly underdone.

Notes

Storage: Store in airtight container for up to 1 week. Freezing: Freeze dough balls for up to 3 months – bake directly from frozen adding 1-2 extra minutes. Tips: For thicker cookies, chill dough 30 minutes before baking. For crispier cookies, bake 1-2 minutes longer.
