Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until well combined.
Fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula or wooden spoon until evenly distributed.
Scoop heaping tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your freshly baked classic chocolate chip cookies!
