Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup dark or milk chocolate chunks (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 3-4 minutes using an electric mixer on medium speed.
Add in 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 mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix.
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and optional chocolate chunks with a spatula until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours, or overnight for even better flavor and texture.
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Scoop the dough into 2-tablespoon-sized portions (or use a cookie scoop) and place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still look slightly underbaked.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm with a cold glass of milk or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
