Ingredients
- 1 cup (softened) unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup (packed) brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet 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 large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Step 3
Add the vanilla extract and eggs to the bowl. Beat until the mixture is well combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
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 on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Step 6
Fold the semi-sweet chocolate chips into the dough using a spatula until evenly distributed.
Step 7
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked but will set as the cookies cool.
Step 9
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve your Katie's Chocolate Chip Cookies with a glass of milk and enjoy!
