Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup (softened) unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2.75 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts, if using.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded dough balls 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 lightly golden and the centers look slightly underbaked.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your Simply Sensational Chocolate Chip Cookies with a glass of cold milk or your favorite warm beverage!
