Ingredients

• 1 cup (softened) Unsalted butter
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup Brown sugar (packed)
• 2 Large eggs
• 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
• 2.25 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 cups Semisweet chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup Optional chopped nuts (like walnuts or pecans)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and 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 fluffy and pale, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then mix 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 on low speed, until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Gently fold in the chocolate chips and, if using, the chopped nuts, until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop rounds of 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 but the centers still look slightly underbaked.

Step 9

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve the cookies warm for a melty chocolate experience, or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
