Ingredients
- 2.25 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Unsalted butter (softened)
- 0.75 cup Light brown sugar (packed)
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 cups Semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the softened butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is creamy and smooth (about 2-3 minutes).
Step 4
Add the vanilla extract and eggs to the butter-sugar mixture one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the wet ingredients in 3 parts, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Step 6
Stir in the semisweet chocolate chips with a spatula or wooden spoon until evenly distributed.
Step 7
Scoop 1.5 tablespoons of dough (using a cookie scoop or tablespoon) per cookie and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart to allow spreading.
Step 8
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers still look slightly undercooked. Avoid overbaking for soft cookies.
Step 9
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.
Step 10
Enjoy warm with a glass of cold milk, or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
