Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup, packed light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until creamy and smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips with a spatula until evenly distributed.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop 1.5-tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly underbaked (they will firm up as they cool).
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Enjoy!
