Ingredients

• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Brown sugar (packed)
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0.75 cup Optional: Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using a hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing 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 at a low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and, if desired, the chopped nuts for extra texture.

Step 7

Scoop tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers appear slightly underbaked. Do not overbake to maintain a chewy texture.

Step 9

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 10

Serve warm with a glass of milk or let cool completely before storing in an airtight container for up to one week.
