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 Brown sugar (packed)
- 1 tablespoon Vanilla extract
- 2 units Large eggs
- 2 cups Semisweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Optional: Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using a hand or stand mixer until light and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add vanilla extract and eggs to the mixture, one at a time. Beat well after each addition until fully incorporated.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients from step 2 into the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the chocolate chips (and chopped nuts, if using) using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake each tray of cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly undercooked (they will firm up as they cool).
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your Super Chocolate Chip Cookies with a glass of cold milk or your favorite beverage!
