Ingredients

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

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

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

Step 3

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

Step 4

Add the vanilla extract and eggs to the butter mixture, beating until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips using a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounds of dough about 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden while the centers remain soft. Do not overbake for a chewy texture.

Step 9

Remove the cookies from the oven and, if desired, sprinkle with a small pinch of flaky sea salt while still warm.

Step 10

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Serve warm or store in an airtight container for up to one week. Enjoy your Decadent Cookies!
