Ingredients
- 1 cup (2 sticks), softened unsalted butter
- 1 cup, packed brown sugar
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2.75 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0 for garnish optional flaky sea salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the eggs one at a time, beating 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 just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
If desired, sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on top of each dough ball for a salty-sweet touch.
Step 9
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers still look slightly underbaked.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 11
Serve warm for maximum gooeyness, and enjoy the ridiculous goodness!
