Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 226 grams unsalted butter, softened
- 150 grams light brown sugar, packed
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 320 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 200 grams semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add the vanilla extract and eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula or wooden spoon.
Divide the dough in half and shape each portion into a log about 2 inches in diameter. Wrap the logs tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm. For longer storage, you can freeze the dough for up to 3 months.
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Unwrap the dough log and slice into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Place the slices on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked, but they will set as they cool.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store baked cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
