Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using a hand or stand mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the vanilla extract and eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Step 4
In a separate medium-sized 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. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Gently fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula, ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Step 8
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still appear slightly soft.
Step 9
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve warm with a glass of milk or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
