Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup light brown sugar, packed
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0.25 teaspoon sea salt flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using a handheld or stand mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

Step 6

Fold in the chocolate chips evenly using a spatula or wooden spoon.

Step 7

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Optional: Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt flakes on top of each dough ball for a salty-sweet flavor contrast.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly underbaked.

Step 10

Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy Brittany's favorite cookies with a glass of milk!
