Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 4
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.
Step 6
Gently fold in the chocolate chunks, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop rounded dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown around the edges and slightly soft in the center.
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 the cookies while slightly warm for the best chocolate chunk experience!
